 WASHINGTON (AP) - George Washington was going to have extend the nation's longest winning streak without center Pops Mensah-Bonsu. Regis Koundjia stepped right in and the sixth-ranked Colonials didn't miss a beat.
With Mensah-Bonsu, the team's second-leading scorer and rebounder, limited to 13 first-half minutes because of a twisted left knee, Koundjia scored 13 points to lead five George Washington players in double figures in a 77-65 victory over La Salle on Wednesday night.
"The guys had to respond because they were going into a situation where they hadn't been before," George Washington coach Karl Hobbs said. "We never told them if Pops was coming back or not coming back."
