The Other Shoe Drops: Monmouth 83, Georgetown 68

After struggling to close out three straight opponents, the Hoyas get jumped from the start in one-sided loss to Hawks.

This is my seventh year of writing recaps of Georgetown basketball games, and my capacity for outrage, or rage of any sort, has eroded. It eroded particularly quickly Tuesday, midway through the second half, when I threw my cell phone across the room as Georgetown was losing by double digits to upstart Monmouth. Wait a minute, that doesn't make sense.

Anyway, the visiting Hawks beat the Hoyas soundly and comprehensively, 83-68, playing with energy and a well-executed game plan while Georgetown lacked either.
