Providence vs. Georgetown 2016 final score: Friars defeat Hoyas 73-69 behind Kris Dunn and Ben Bentil

Providence's highest scorers lead the way once again in a road victory over Georgetown.

As sophomore Ben Bentil approached the free throw line with Providence holding a two-point lead, the confidence and the swagger that was consistent throughout his 26-point performance was exhibited as he sunk the two game-clinching free throws. His dominance, along with Kris Dunn's marvelous offensive and defensive showing, were the key for the Friars in a 73-69 victory over the Georgetown Hoyas.

The Hoyas, who trailed by nine with around two minutes remaining, almost completed back-to-back massive comebacks following a shocking victory over Creighton.
