Hoyas Report

Last night at MCI Center:

BY THE NUMBERS

4.5

Assist-to-turnover ratio this season for Georgetown swingman D.J. Owens, who leads the Big East in the category. Entering the game, Owens had 18 assists against just four turnovers this season.

34.3

Average margin of defeat for Savannah State in 11 games against Division I competition this season. The Tigers, who dropped a staggering 83-23 decision at Oregon earlier this season, bettered that average from 34.8 with last night’s 29-point loss, though the somewhat less laughable margin was largely in deference to former Georgetown guard and Savannah State coach Horace Broadnax.

PLAY OF THE GAME

A little girl authored a thunderous two-handed slam in a halftime mini-hoop dunk contest, easily the top promotional staple of this season. Said junior fan exhibited beautiful extension and no-doubt authority in topping her four male counterparts. Nothing remotely as inspiring happened during the actual game.
