Your Georgetown Hoyas (8-10, 1-6) had the Xavier Musketeers (10-8, 4-3) on the ropes but could not finish the battle at the Cintas Center on Friday night leading to a 92-91 defeat. In a physical game, with 38 total fouls called, the Hoyas led most of the game, including down the stretch, until a missed layup by Jayden Epps led to a transition dunk that put Xavier up one. With a chance to win it, Epps (30 points, 11 assists; 8-18 FG, 3-5 3PT) was double teamed and Ed Cooley’s final play dissolved into chaos.
