Syracuse Women Also Hit the Road Saturday

The Women play hatred rival Georgetown Saturday at 3:00 in Georgtown. They will look to continue their three game winning streak against the struggling Hoyas. Georgetown is just 1-6 in the conference and 11-9 overall. They are way down in the RPI at 119th while Syracuse has shot all the way up to 14th.

Georgetown's only win in the conference is against an okay Seton Hall team at home. GU has a couple quality non conference wins against Towson and VCU who are right at the top of the CAA.

The Hoyas have struggled to score this year, averaging just 63 points per game and only 54 per game in conference play.

Kieraah Marlow leads the team in scoring at 14.7 points per game and rebounds at 6.9 per game. Marlow is the only member of the team that is averaging double digits for the year. Even Marlow's production has dropped in conference play. She's scoring more than three points per game less in conference play, scoring just 11.4 per game.

There's really one key for Syracuse in this game, shut down Marlow. Georgetown doesn't have any other solid scoring options which means Syracuse should roll in this game.

CuseAdelphia Prediction: Syracuse dominates Georgetown 78-46.
