Georgetown Falls Short Against BC Atletas, 90-85, in Italy

Montecatini Terme, Italy - Four players scored in double figures for Georgetown but it wasn’t enough as BC Atletas, a second division professional team from Lithuania, used a run in the fourth period to open a lead and withstood a late comeback from the Hoyas in a 90-85 win at the Palaterme.

It was the first loss on a 10-day foreign tour for the Hoyas, who won their first two games.

Trailing 66-62 after a dunk from freshman center Jessie Govan (Queens Village, N.Y./Wings Academy), BC Atletas used a 14-5 run to take an 80-67 lead with 5:20 to play in the game.
