The Georgetown Hoyas welcome the Mount St. Mary's Mountaineers to D.C. for a non-conference affair this evening.

So far this season, Hoya fans seem to be in a real hurry to forget about last year and move on...immediately. A Understandable.

Georgetown bounced back nicely after a poor home opener. Now, coach John Thompson III gets to see how his team responds following a long gap between games.

Cole Aldrich had 18 points, 11 rebounds and five blocks, helping No.1 Kansas overcome 21 turnovers to beat Memphis 57-55 Tuesday in St.

Savannah State guard Tracy Rankins slashes to the basket under Georgetown's Nikita Mescheriakov and Chris Wright during Saturday's game at Tiger Arena.

Freshman John Wall had 21 points and 11 assists as No. 4 Kentucky dominated Rider 92-63 on Saturday in the Cancun Challenge.

No. 19 Georgetown emerged from an overwhelmingly optimistic season-opening victory at Tulane with one obvious question: Which version of junior lead guard Chris Wright will predominate as the season progresses? Will it be the quick-triggered player who accumulated four turnovers and no assists in a sloppy first half at Tulane as the Hoyas took a ...

The only way Tulane can defend against the No. 20 Hoyas' perpetual motion and back-door cutting is to be disciplined on defense and maintain energy, Green Wave Coach Dave Dickerson said.

Former Helen Cox High School star Greg Monroe was the Big East Rookie of the Year last season at Georgetown and now has his sights set on getting the Hoyas an NCAA Tournament bid this season.
