After a lackluster defensive showing on Saturday against the Georgetown Hoyas in Washington D.C., the Pirates sent their NCAA Tournament hopes into a freefall. A Quad 2 loss is never good, especially against a team that is second-to-last in their conference.
However, it is not too late for the Pirates to continue to bolster their resume, so they took to Hinkle Fieldhouse on Wednesday to face the Butler Bulldogs and hopefully restore the winning ways they had before they faced the Hoyas.
