View From Press Row: Bradley Hayes For President
Geoff Burke-USA TODAY Sports"He's a senior at Georgetown playing against Syracuse. If he's not fired up to play in this game we've made a whole lot of mistakes these last four years." - Coach John Thompson III on the aggressive play, particularly defensively of D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera
Winning Time: Even though the Hoyas led for almost 37 minutes, this game was won over a stretch that covered the last part of the first half and the first part of the second half. After Syracuse cut the Hoyas lead down to 31-24, two free throws from Isaac Copeland as well as another timely Reggie Cameron 3-pointer push the halftime bulge to 36-24.
