Out Like a Lamb: Georgetown Closes Regular Season with 84-71 Loss at #3 Villanova

Hoyas get blown out in sixth straight loss despite 31 points from L.J. Peak.

Georgetown fell behind early and stayed that way en route to an 84-71 loss at #3 Villanova Saturday. The loss was the Hoyas' sixth straight, the longest such streak for Georgetown in John Thompson III's 12-year tenure. Saturday's defeat resembled many of its predecessors, as Georgetown trailed Villanova for the entire game, including by double digits for the final 35 minutes. While the Hoyas were inept on both ends of the floor, the real culprit was defense, as Georgetown gave up 80-plus points for the fourth straight game, including 46 in the first half alone.
