Scoop Jardine scored 17 points, including five during a decisive second-half surge, to lead No. 20 Syracuse to a 58-51 victory at No. 11 Georgetown on Saturday afternoon.

After the Hoyas rallied from a 12-point deficit early in the second half to take a 45-43 lead with 10:03 left, the Orange (24-6, 11-6 Big East) answered with an 11-1 run to pull back ahead by eight at 54-46 at the 3:57 mark.

Georgetown (21-8, 10-7) could get no closer than three down the stretch, and Brandon Triche hit four foul shots in the final 23 seconds to ice it for Syracuse.

Ricky Jackson added 12 points and eight rebounds for the Orange. Austin Freeman led the way with 16 points for Georgetown, which was playing its first full game without injured point guard Chris Wright.

The Hoyas struggled on offense for the second straight game, hitting just 32.1 percent of its field-goal attempts in each half.
