Georgetown bounces back from Syracuse loss by running away from North Texas. Shaking off a disheartening result against a contentious rival over the weekend, Georgetown used its advantage in length and athleticism along with robust defense to foil North Texas, 75-63, on Wednesday night at Capital One Arena. Center Jessie Govan and forward Marcus Derrickson combined for 29 points, 21 rebounds and seven blocks for the Hoyas, who played for the first time since Saturday’s overtime loss to former Big East rival Syracuse. Georgetown (9-1) went on a 7-0 run for a 66-54 margin with 5:57 to play. That was the first double-digit lead for the Hoyas, who have one game remaining until opening the Big East schedule in a week. “They were sluggish. I had to keep pushing them and pushing them to get over the Syracuse game and get ready for this game,” Hoyas Coach Patrick Ewing said. “That’s how we started the game, but then toward the end of the first half, we picked it up defensively. That’s how we won.”
