Georgetown and Wisconsin will meet again.The unranked Hoyas upset No. 13 Oregon 65-61 in the first round of the Maui Invitational Monday to set up a second-round game Tuesday against No. 16 Wisconsin, which beat Tennessee 74-62 in the first round.Georgetown and Wisconsin have played in each of the last two seasons including a 71-61 win by the Hoyas last year at the 2K Classic in New York City.Yeah, its becoming a conference game, thats stating the obvious, Georgetown coach John Thompson III said. Theyre tough and they make you earn everything. Nothing ever is easy against them. And when you make mistakes, they make you pay. And then you take that and you add the fact that, like it is systematic, forget the system. Theyve got some really good players too.The Badgers lost to Creighton last week, but have bounced back with two wins in a row.As always, trying to get the first game is the one you want to get under your belt, Wisconsin coach Greg Gard said. I am proud of the guys for battling back. Obviously there are a lot of things to clean up and get better at.Wisconsin scored the first 12 points against Tennessee, but fell behind 46-44 before rallying for the victory. Guard Bronson Koenig led the Wolverines with 21 points and four assists. Koenig has recently been the driving force of the offense. His outside shot opens the floor for the rest of the Badgers. He made 9 of 15 shots on Monday, but Wisconsin did not play its usual disciplined brand of offense.That helped Tennessee stick around into the second half.We need to play at our pace and control the tempo more, Koenig said after Wisconsin had 18 turnovers in the win.Forward Nigel Hayes added 17 points and 10 rebounds for Wisconsin while forward Ethan Happ had 16 points.The Hoyas were able to put an upset loss to Arkansas State behind them to beat the ranked Ducks and set up a meeting with the Badgers. Guard Rodney Pryor had 26 points to pace Georgetown.We know we are a good team, Pryor said. We know we let two games go early but we cant hang our heads on that. We cant get too low or too high, so coming out here we knew we had to stay together and believe in each other.Georgetown has short rest as it prepares for another ranked foe.Its a tough game, Thompson said. We have to go hydrate and start to get ready for them. But its a battle. Every offensive possession is a battle. We have to be ready for that.Mondays win was a confidence boost for the Hoyas. Wisconsin is looking to build its own momentum by reaching Wednesdays title game before returning home and drawing Syracuse (Nov. 29) in the Big Ten-ACC Challenge.Vapormax Sleva . 8 Kansas to a 64-63 win over Texas Tech on Tuesday night.

Match time is set for 2 p.m. and the match is slated to air on the SEC Network.Offensively I thought we were very good tonight, head coach Craig Skinner said. Hitting .340 and almost 50 kills in three sets, you have to be pleased with that. A number of people got a lot of good swings and we had just a few errors.Dailey led the way in both phases of the game for the Cats as she also directed the offense to the tune of 49 combined kills and a .339 hitting percentage. Freshman Leah Edmond reached double figures with 14 kills. Shes tallied double-digit kill totals in 24 of UKs 27 matches this season. Junior Kaz Brown logged eight behind a .400 attacking clip. Fellow middle blocker Emily Franklin added seven, while Thomasson and junior Darian Mack totaled six apiece. Sophomore Brooke Morgan scored five kills on a .444 attacking percentage.We work a lot on digging that side of the court, Skinner added. Its harder to dig right-back than it is left-back because its a quicker attack. Olivia and McKenzie (Watson) did a great job of being disciplined. They stopped on defense and made plays. Both of them are very good right-back defenders.Thomasson contributed three aces and four digs in an all-around effort. Junior libero Ashley Dusek had eight digs, while sophomore McKenzie Watson and Edmond both contributed five. Browns two blocks led the way at the net defensively.SET RECAPSSet 1 Prior to the match, Thomasson was recognized for breaking the 25-point rally scoring era for most career aces - and then the first three points of the match were scored on aces, by UKs senior leader.

LSU fended off the advantage to pull back to within one at 5-4, but a service error enabled the home team to grasp another multi-point edge.
