After an abrupt ending, Hoyas start to ponder a season of hope ahead

PORTLAND, Ore. -- In the immediate aftermath, John Thompson III could not evaluate the Georgetown men's basketball team's season. The abruptness still stung too much. The Hoyas' 75-64 defeat Saturday night against Utah in the Round of 32 carried too much pain for specifics. "I mean, we just lost," Thompson said. "It's hard to digest and analyze the whole season right at this point."
