Georgetown
Omer Yurtseven registered 22 points (9-17 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 34 minutes Saturday in Georgetown’s 84-80 loss to Marquette…Mac McClung contributed 24 points (8-18 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 5-8 FT), six rebounds, three assists and one steal in 35 minutes Saturday in Georgetown’s 84-80 loss to Marquette.
Xavier
Quentin Goodin had six points (3-5 FG, 0-1 3pt, 0-2 FT), three boards, one assist and four turnovers in Monday’s 68-62 loss against Villanova. This was a brutal start to conference play for Goodin, who has been all over in terms of production this season. His scoring has dipped by more than three points from a year ago and more troubling is that his assist numbers are unpredictable from the 11 against TCU to the one against ‘Nova.
