The No. 23 UConn Huskies traveled to Washington DC to play the Georgetown Hoyas, winning 68-62. It was a weird game, with UConn in control and playing reasonably well, but Georgetown kept it close and made things uncomfortable for Dan Hurley’s squad.
UConn (18-6, 7-6 Big East) was the better team in the first half but never had a large lead to show for it. Adama Sanogo, Jordan Hawkins, and Tristen Newton led the scoring push. Hawkins had seven of his 10 points in the first half while Newton and Sanogo tied for the team lead with 15 points each.
