Review: Hoyas fight to highest seed since ’99-’00

Last year, Georgetown ended the regular season with an overall record of 12-16 and a final Big East tally of 7-9. However, the Hoyas conference record was solid enough to land them the sixth seed in the Big East tournament, the team’s highest seeding since the 1999-00 season.

Raptor! Raptor! Raptor!

Streaking down the court as fast as my little legs will carry me, clad in flashy blue shorts down to my shins, I hear our point guard call: ‘Raptor! Raptor!’ Raptor was a play of pure genius.

Notes from the Underground

24 Hours in the tunnels

The first thing you notice is the hissing. As you step through the yawning metal door marked “Do Not Enter” into the network of heating maintenance tunnels beneath the center of campus, the steam pipes all around you emit a high, insistent whine punctuated by the occasional blast from a half-open valve. The path ahead stretches off into close, humid darkness on one side and the incandescent glare of naked light bulbs along a long, narrow corridor on the other. The passages are just barely wide enough for one person to walk through at a time, and they stretch onwards until the other end is little more than a smear of glowing color and shadow.
