03/10/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Greg Monroe finished with 16 points and seven rebounds, as No. 22 Georgetown defeated South Florida, 69-49, in the second round of the Big East Tournament.
Jason Clark sank four three-pointers and finished with 16 points, while Chris Wright added 15 for the Hoyas (21-9), who will face top-seeded Syracuse on Thursday.
Georgetown had lost to USF in the only regular season matchup between the teams on November 3 at home. But the Hoyas limited the Bulls (20-12) to under 30 percent shooting Wednesday to get the win, their second in a row. Georgetown hadn't won two straight since early February.
Dominique Jones ended with 21 points to pace USF but shot just 6-of-18. Augustus Gilchrist added nine points and eight rebounds in the loss.
Gilchrist hit a jumper about five minutes into the game for a 6-4 USF lead, but Georgetown followed with a 17-3 run, which Julian Vaughn capped with two free throws for a 21-9 lead with five minutes to play in the half.
The Hoyas went into the break with a 31-19 advantage.
South Florida pulled within six several times early in the second half, including when Gilchrist's dunk had the Bulls down only 37-31. But Georgetown countered with a Hollis Thompson three and Wright jumper to restore a double- digit cushion.
Just past the midway point, Wright drained a three and Austin Freeman followed with a jumper to make it a 53-39 game with eight minutes left, and the Hoyas pulled away from there.
Game Notes
Freeman, in his second game since being diagnosed with diabetes, finished 3- for-12 for eight points and added four assists...Georgetown shot 45.8 percent, including 7-of-14 from three-point range...Georgetown lost both regular season matchups with the Orange.

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.
Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.
Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.
Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.
Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.
All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.
A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
