Family Guys
The Hoyas aim for the NCAAs, led by John Thompson III
From Thompson Jr. to Thompson III and Ewing to Ewing Jr.; from the Westchester High School backcourt tandem of Brandon Bowman and Ashanti Cook to the Big East senior backcourt duo; from the comfort of home on the hilltop to culture shock at the southern abode of a loyal teammate: this year’s Georgetown Hoyas are much more than a 15-member team on the hard-court. They are family, members of the close-knit community that is Georgetown basketball.
“We really know what’s going on,” senior forward Brandon Bowman said of the seniors. “But we are more of a family, so everyone voices their opinion equally.”
