The Big EAST Reigns Supreme



The Georgetown Hoyas made BIG EAST NATION proud by spanking North Carolina in the last ten minutes of the 2nd half and then shut them out in OT until the 7 second mark, winning 96-84. Roy Hibbert, Jeff Green, Johnathan Wallace and company were awesome, sending Georgetown to their 1st FINAL FOUR since 1984. I've got the Hoyas winning the championship in both of my brackets over Kansas (oops).


Growing up in the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia, we lived about 70 miles from DC and the early '80's Georgetown teams were my favorite along with West Virginia. Many of the games were broadcast on an independent station out of DC. I grew up watching Patrick Ewing, Reggie Williams, David Wingate, Michael Jackson, Ronnie Highsmith, Sleepy Floyd, and many others dominate college basketball in early '80's. It's great to see G'Town once again being a dominant force in college basketball.
