Georgetown rallies past S. Fla.

The worst team in the Big East was leading the conference's best team by nine points late the first half. South Florida was shooting 77 percent. One player, DuJuan Summers, had accounted for four of Georgetown's meager tally of five baskets.

The Bulls missed their next 9 shots. The Hoyas went on a 12-0 run to take the lead for good. Summers finished with a career-high 24 points, and No. 6 Georgetown did just enough in the second half Tuesday night to hold on for a 63-53 victory.

The Hoyas raised their record to 19-2 (9-1 Big East).

Dominique Jones scored 15 points for the Bulls (10-13, 1-9), who have lost nine straight.
