After thirteen iterations of home victories against the St. John’s Red Storm (14-1, 2-1), the Georgetown Hoyas (11-4, 1-1) lost an overtime heartbreaker against the “Johnnies” at Capital One Arena. With another loss featuring a blown lead and late game turnovers, it may be tough to stay optimistic about Georgetown’s competitiveness in the conference.
However, considering the high level that Shamorie Ponds and the rest of Chris Mullin’s squad have been playing, perhaps this loss—as badly as Hoya-twitter were taking yet another late-game fumble—is not as bad as it felt.
