Georgetown Tops Villanova 64-63 in Dramatic Comeback

In a thrilling Big East matchup, Georgetown edged Villanova 64-63, marking their first victory against the Wildcats this season. Micah Peavy led the Hoyas with 24 points, including the decisive layup with just 1.7 seconds remaining, while Thomas Sorber recorded a double-double with 15 points and 11 rebounds. Villanova had controlled the game for much of the second half, leading by as many as six points before Georgetown's late scoring run turned the tide. Eric Dixon was the standout for the Wildcats, scoring 29 points, but his last-second shot to reclaim the win missed the mark. The game saw a total of eight lead changes, highlighting the intense competition between the two teams. Villanova's Wooga Poplar was ejected for a flagrant foul, which further complicated the Wildcats' efforts to secure the win.
