BIG EAST CHAMPIONS AGAIN!! Georgetown Trounces Creighton En Route to Record 8th Big East Championship

YES. YES. YES. YES.

Saturday night, your Georgetown Hoyas returned to the Big East Tournament final and reclaimed their throne atop of the conference, blowing the doors off of Creighton, 73-48, to complete an unexpected championship run and earn a trip to the NCAA Tournament. Tonight was complete validation: for Coach Patrick Ewing who, despite nothing but success as a Georgetown player, hadn’t won a BET game entering this week; for seniors Jahvon Blair and Jamorko Pickett who, despite committing to Ewing from the jump, had toiled through years of building and rebuilding; and for a squad that, despite being picked last in the conference and suffering through early-season disappointments, found their collective and individual identity at just the right time.
