Expectations were running high for your Georgetown Hoyas this evening as they tipped off against the much-loathed Blue Devils. Coming off a win over Texas in Thursday’s game where the rotations were tight and players steady, this looked like a different team than had faced lesser competition in the first few games. While the result ultimately ends up in the “L” column, Georgetown showed both talent and perseverance this evening in an 81-73 decision. James Akinjo is showing himself to be a true leader, and Omer Yurtseven — when he can avoid foul trouble — will be a dangerous weapon in BIG EAST play.
