Hoyas Fight off Clemson Second Half Rally
CLEMSON – With six minutes to play in the first half at Littlejohn Coliseum Friday night, Clemson trailed Georgetown by 19 points.
Around an hour later, the Tigers somehow led by two points with six minutes to play. Still, the Hoyas walked off with a 85-78 road win over Clemson, giving head coach Brad Brownell’s squad its first defeat of the young season.
Though Clemson (3-1) warded off an 18-0 first half run from Georgetown (4-0), the Hoyas made some late shots– both from the field and the free throw line– to fend off a scrappy pack of second half Tigers.
