Opponent Summary:

On Wednesday evening, the Georgetown Hoyas visit the Smith Center to take on the Revolutionaries. The Hoyas, picked to finish 8th in the Big East, come into this contest at 3-0, with victories over Delaware State, American, and on Sunday, a 97-37 thrashing of St. Peter’s. GU has a lot of new faces this season, but Khia Miller and Destiny Agubata return to lead a squad that includes transfers Brianna Byars (Cincinnati), and last season’s MAC Defensive Player of the Year, Johnea Donahue (Bowling Green). After 3 games, Agubata (18.7 ppg) and Miller (16.0 ppg) currently pace GU in scoring, while Byars is also in at double figures (12.7 ppg) and Donahue has already logged 17 dimes and 13 steals. It’s early in the season, and the Hoya’s schedule has been weak, but so far as a team, GU average 85.3 ppg while allowing just 49.7 ppg. They shoot at a 45.1% (38.4% from beyond the arc), and hold their opponents to 38.8% from the field (24.6% on 3-pointers). They own a +15.3 advantage in rebounding, and have an assist-to-turnover ratio of 1.3.

About the Game:

Like Georgetown, GW’s early season statistics are skewed by the games against weaker opponents and not very meaningful. Last year, Georgetown’s pressure defense completely controlled the game from end to end and the Hoyas came away with an easy victory. Expect the Hoyas to pressure the Revs again this year. Against West Virginia, the Revs turned the ball over too many times, gave up too many offensive boards and committed some unnecessary fouls, but their half court offense and defense played good enough to keep them in the game. This year’s Revs seems to have more scoring talent, but mostly in the backcourt. Look for bigger offensive contributions from the front court as the season progresses. At this point of the season, GW will counter with Reynolds (15 ppg) and Lewis (8.5 ppg) scoring in the half court offensive sets and Newell (16.0 ppg) manufacturing points off of her defense and in transition. Wilson and Harris can score coming off the bench, but as of now, it seems the front court subs (Becker, Konate and Rust) are coming in primarily for defensive purposes.

The WVU game was good preparation for what Georgetown will bring, and if GW can prevent the Hoyas from getting big runs, it will be a competitive game. GU does not present the size issues that the Mountaineers did, but they will be physical and relentless. Hopefully, being at home helps the Revs. Also, the game within the game (the defensive play of Donahue versus Newell) will be interesting to watch.

A win would be great, with Long Island University on deck and coming to the Smith Center this weekend.
