Georgetown brawls in China

(See the video of it here.)

Duke's basketball team isn't the only one in China right now.

The Georgetown Hoyas are there as well. But where Duke's trip is being broadcast on ESPN U and announced by Doug Gottlieb, Georgetown's trip appears to be better suited to Pay-Per-View with Jerry Springer on the call:


It appears as if everyone with the Hoyas -- the coaches and the players -- made it out just fine, which is a good thing even if you are from Syracuse, NY.

Washington Post reporter Gene Wang is traveling with the team in China. We'll update this post as more information comes out.

UPDATE: Here is a detailed breakdown from a Georgetown message board. Keep in mind, this is a Georgetown message board, but the same story is generally being told on every Hoya fan site. (h/t Casual Hoya)

Check out these wild photos from the Washington Post. Unreal. This was actually a real-life, full-blown brawl.


UPDATE II: Georgetown sent out a release with a quote from JT III: "Tonight, two great teams played a very competitive game that unfortunately ended after heated exchanges with both teams. We sincerely regret that this situation occurred. We remain grateful for the opportunity our student-athletes are having to engage in a sport they love here in  China, while strengthening their understanding of a nation we respect and admire at Georgetown University."
