Preview: Big East Tournament Semi-final #1 Georgetown vs. West Virginia

Georgetown Hoyas: The Hoyas are coming off a 19 point victory over the Villanova Wildcats. Jessie Sapp led the way with a career high 23 points and Jonathan Wallace had 19 points. Sapp and Wallace need to have another good shooting night for the Hoyas to advance to the finals on Saturday. Roy Hibbert was held scoreless for the first time all season and fouled out of the game. Hibbert needs to rebound from a bad game to help the Hoyas stop the hottest player in the Big East's Joe Alexander and big man Jamie Smalligan. Georgetown played West Virginia on January 26, 2008 and won 58-57. Junior guard Jessie Sapp pulled up with 6.2 seconds left and hit a three-pointer from the top of the key and senior forward Patrick Ewing, Jr. blocked a shot at the buzzer as No. 9 Georgetown fought back from a 10-point second half deficit to post a 58-57 win over West Virginia at WVU Coliseum. The crowd thought it was a goal-tending on the Hoyas but the referee called it a block to end the game. Sapp led the Hoyas with 15 points and Roy Hibbert had 12 points. They'll need more help from Jonathan Wallace, Austin Freeman and DaJuan Summers to help beat West Virginia again.
