PROVIDENCE, R.I.– The Providence College women's basketball team fell to Georgetown, 68-52, on Jan. 4 at Alumni Hall in Providence, R.I. The Friars dropped to 8-7 overall (0-3 BIG EAST), while the Hoyas improved to 8-6 (2-1 BIG EAST).
Providence started on a 10-0 run beginning with 1:13 left in the first quarter to take an 18-13 lead with 7:41 on the clock in the second quarter. The highlight of the Friars' run came as freshman Alyssa Geary (Elmhurst, Ill.) drained a three-pointer in transition as time expired in the first. The Hoyas used an 11-2 advantage in points off of turnovers in the second half to gain a 28-26 lead at halftime.
Providence hit their first five shots to start the third quarter, including four three pointers to take a 42-36 lead. A 7-0 run by the Hoyas late in the quarter provided a 45-43 lead with 32-seconds left on the clock. Senior Maddie Jolin (Rehoboth, Mass.) sank a pair of free throws with seven seconds remaining to tie the game, 45-45, heading into the final frame.
Georgetown opened the fourth quarter on a 7-0 run in the first two minutes of action to take a 52-45 lead and force a Providence timeout. The Hoyas' run continued out of the break with six-consecutive points to make it an 13-0 run (57-45).
Jovana Nogic (Belgrade, Serbia) finally got the Friars on the board with 5:34 left in the game on a spinning shot in the lane, but the Hoyas answered right back on their next possession to lead 60-47 heading into the media timeout (4:28).
Ultimately, the Friars were out-scored 23-7 in the final 10 minutes of play, allowing the Hoyas to take the 16-point victory.
