WASHINGTON (AP) - Georgetown coach John Thompson III stood at the podium and spoke like a man who was relieved to have last week and, perhaps, the doubts of last season behind him.
His 23rd-ranked Hoyas had come up with the victory they needed to get back on track for a berth in the NCAA tournament by beating Rutgers 66-50 on Wednesday night.
In the span of seven days, the Hoyas (18-7, 9-5 Big East) dropped three straight to then-No. 9 West Virginia, Marquette and then-No. 4 Villanova.
