UNC Greensboro vs. Georgetown 2016 final score: What we learned from the Hoyas 78-56 win

Georgetown improves to 8-4 on the season following their 78-56 victory over UNC Greensboro on Thursday night.

In a game where they seldom trailed following the opening salvo, the Hoyas took care of business in their final tuneup before Big East play. Their nonconference slate may not be over as they will welcome UConn to D.C. in January, but for now, focus will shift over to taking down their conference peers.

Thursday night’s encounter was a breakout for sophomore Jessie Govan. The second-year big man from Queens Village, New York posted 20 points, matching his previous season high that he put up on November 17 in an ill-fated loss to Arkansas State.
