Georgetown beats DePaul, snapping 29-game Big East losing skid

WASHINGTON -- Georgetown snapped a 29-game losing streak against Big East opponents with an 81-76 victory over DePaul on Tuesday night.

With their victory Tuesday, the Hoyas also ended a 10-game losing streak this season.

Primo Spears scored 21 points and also contributed six assists for the Hoyas.
