The Georgetown game was packed and sold out. They had to play their game at their on-campus gym (McDonough Arena) b/c the Verizon Center was already in use that night. McDonough is tiny and can only hold that many.

Wasnt sold out but close enough.

2,133 in attendance, and place only holds 2500. I didnt realize the Arena was that small when I commented earlier.

Teams hasnt done anything in the last few years and they were 8-20 something.

The Syracuse win might have helped garner some interest in the end but not enough to stop to apathy.
