Georgetown is heading back to the NCAA tournament after an unlikely 73–48 win over Creighton to win the Big East championship at Madison Square Garden.
This will be Georgetown's first March Madness appearance since 2015 and the first time coach Patrick Ewing is returning to the tournament since the 1985 Final Four, where he played center for the Hoyas.
Georgetown completely dominated Creighton from start to finish on Saturday in what was a dominant performance. The Hoyas led by as much as 31 at one point and even went on a 46-8 run.
Forward Chudier Bile had 19 points and eight rebounds in the win while Jahvon Blair had 18 points and nailed four of Georgetown's 10 three-pointers. Freshman Dante Harris was named most outstanding player of the tournament and had 10 points, eight boards and five assists in the win.
