After one of the wilder Georgetown games in recent memory, Christmas came a bit early as freshmen James Akinjo and Mac McClung made their post-game press conference debuts alongside coach Patrick Ewing a little earlier than most expected.
While Georgetown still makes freshmen wait until the second semester to speak with the media there has been some grey area in this department over the years. Sometimes they are free game after the Fall semester exams have been completed. Sometimes it’s after Jan 1 and other times it’s not until the Spring semester begins.
Either way, it was great to have them available after Georgetown’s 102-94 overtime win over Little Rock as McClung looks to have broken a freshman single game scoring record with 38 points while Akinjo went for career best 25 points.
