Different Line-up, Same Result: Georgetown Falls to Creighton, 91-87
WASHINGTON – Georgetown coach Patrick Ewing shook up his starting lineup but the result was the same as the Hoyas fell to Creighton 91-87 on Monday night.
Jessie Govan led the Hoyas with 22 points and 12 rebounds and James Akinjo added a career-high 11 assists in his first action off the bench as Georgetown (12-7, 2-4) dropped to two games under .500 in BIG EAST play in losing their fourth straight game to Creighton (11-8, 2-4).
Akinjo was replaced in the starting line-up by Jagan Mosely while Jamorko Pickett was replaced by Greg Malinowski.
When asked if he took any solace in the losses all being close, Ewing responded “No” without hesitation.
“At the end of the day, it’s a loss,” Ewing said.
