Four in Double Figures as Georgetown Cruises to 95-36 Win in Italy

Rome, Italy - Four Georgetown University men’s basketball players scored in double figures, led by 18 points from freshman forward Marcus Derrickson (Bowie, Md./Brewster Academy [N.H.]), and nine different players scored at least five points as the Hoyas cruised to a 95-36 win over the Italy All-Stars on Tuesday night at Arena Atletico Felicio.

It was the second-straight win to open a 10-day tour of Italy for the Hoyas, who depart Rome on Wednesday morning and travel to Florence, stopping to see the Leaning Tower of Pisa along the way.

Prior to Tuesday night’s game, Head Coach John Thompson III and the team took time for a photo with Kenneth Hackett, United States Ambassador to the Holy See (the Vatican).
