Villanova surges in second half to 73-57 win over Georgetown

The Villanova Wildcats were able to bounce back from their two-game losing streak Wednesday night in Washington D.C., defeating the Georgetown Hoyas, 73-57.

With the result, the Hoyas’ Big East losing-streak extends to 24 games. It dates all the way back to March 13, 2021, when the Hoyas defeated Creighton to win the 2021 Big East Tournament.

Although the Wildcats got the win, it came at a cost — sophomore Jordan Longino appeared to injure his surgically-repaired left knee that forced him to miss all of the NCAA Tournament Final Four run last season.

Longino was carried off the court by teammate Nnanna Njoku, with two minutes remaining in the first half and did not return.
