Second Round Game Recap from the Hoya Hoop Club:

How Sweet It Is! Hoyas Power Past Eagles In Second Round Of NCAA Tourney, 62-55Winston-Salem, N.C. - During the first half of Georgetown's second round NCAA Tournament game with Boston College, Head Coach John Thompson III spoke with junior center Roy Hibbert (Adelphi, Md./Georgetown Prep) as he sat on the bench after picking up two fouls in the game's first 14 minutes. The Hoyas' third-year head coach told the 7-2 center that the team would be going to him in the second half. Hibbert responded, scoring 15 of his team-high 17 points in the second half as No. 2 seed Georgetown fought back from an eight-point deficit to beat their old foe from the BIG EAST Conference, 62-55, in front of 14,148 fans at Lawrence Joel Veterans Memorial Coliseum Saturday evening. The win moves the Hoyas into the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament for the second-straight year and the 11th time in program history. It was the team's sixth-straight win, and the 17th in the last 18 for the Hoyas, who improve to 28-6 overall.
