With two conference games remaining, the Hoyas sit atop the conference with 15 points, while Providence, Xavier, and Saturday's opponent St. John's are all tied for second with 11.
One more win and the Hoyas are regular season champs once more. Getting it done at home with a game to spare would be quite nice. #TrophySZN is nigh!
If the standings finished as they stand now, Georgetown would face #8 Seton Hall in the first round.

Took a while, but Nova coach had them bunkered in until we got the first goal. We got it. The measure of the relative value of the two teams came when they had to come out of that bunkering if they even wanted a point...No comparison.
Games like this are not indicative of two opponents.

Game ends at 1-1. Would've wanted more at home, especially with the wind at our backs in the second half. Not the most dialed in of performances, though certainly not terrible by any means.
St. John's showed more than I was expecting. The least impressive person on the field was the referee.
Xavier was also held to a 1-1 draw at Nova - disappointing result for the Muskies. Sitting on 12 points apiece, neither they nor St. John's can catch the Hoyas' 16 with one game left.
The only teams remaining in mathematical contention are Providence, which plays at the Toilet Bowl in Indianapolis tonight, and Creighton, who hosts UConn this afternoon. Anything less than a win eliminates them from contention for the regular season title... so there is a chance the Hoyas could be the champs before the clock strikes midnight.

All the analytics in the world can't save the Blue Jays from suffering a 2-0 defeat at the paws of the Huskies, ending their regular season title hopes.
Providence needs a win to stay in the hunt. Butler will be playing for their postseason lives.

Provy up 3-0 at Butler, so... Hoyas will need to take care of business at Marquette.

Good little Tuesday matinee. Got shocked out of complacency with an early goal and then responded brightly.

Nice of Marquette to not score the game-tying goal until there were -2 seconds left. Turns out that, unlike most of mathematics, negative numbers are not allowed in the beautiful game.
EDIT: Oh, that shot hit the *outside* of the goal. Well alright then.
