Pirates blow double-digit lead at Georgetown
Despite leading by upwards of 18 points, the Seton hall women’s basketball team fell, 51-43, to Georgetown on Friday afternoon. The tough loss puts the Pirates at 14-13, including 6-10 in conference play.
The Pirates began the game with a few empty possessions before Shadeen Samuels banked in a three from the top of the key. Inja Butina followed that up with two consecutive three-pointers of her own, making that three buckets from beyond the arc to start.
After a Selena Philoxy layup, Nicole Jimenez drained another three for the Pirates, jumping out to a 14-3 lead with 3:01 left in the first quarter. The quarter ended at 16-3 Pin favor of Seton Hall with Georgetown only making one shot.
