 EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) - Same names, different endings. Unlike father, like son. Twenty-five years later, Georgetown got even.
In an NCAA tournament full of incredible rallies, it was the Hoyas' turn — against North Carolina, for goodness sakes, the same Tar Heels who won the national title on a Michael Jordan jumper that denied a different Georgetown team led by a coach named Thompson and a player named Ewing a generation ago.
These Hoyas overcame an 11-point deficit in the second half, then ripped off 14 straight points in overtime to stun top-seeded Carolina 96-84 in the East Regional final Sunday for their first trip to the Final Four since 1985.
