Roy Hibbert, the Hoyas 7-foot-2 center scored 25 points with 13 rebounds led Georgetown to a 72-55 victory over West Virginia in the tournament semi-finals on Friday to earn a trip to the title game. It was the seventh-straight win, and the 14th in the last 16 games, for Georgetown, who improve to 27-4 overall and advance to the Championship Game of the BIG EAST Tournament for the 12th time in program history. Georgetown is now 14-0 in BIG EAST Tournament history when they are the No. 1 seed. The Panthers reached the title game for the seventh time in eight years with a 68-61 victory over No. 25 Marquette on Friday night. As great as that run sounds, there is a lot more for them to do since they have won the tournament just once, beating Connecticut in 2003. Sam Young scored 22 points to lead the seventh-seeded Panthers (25-9), who, again just like last season, reached the title game without benefit of a first-round bye, beating Cincinnati and second-seeded Louisville in their first two games. The only team to won four games in as many days to win the title was Syracuse in 2006.
