Hoyas history; Colorado uses 3s to dismiss Georgetown 96-73

It was a 96-73 thumping of Georgetown, the program Ewing starred for in the 1980s and now coaches. “We didn't bring our ‘A’ game,” Ewing said. He was called for a flagrant-one foul when he took down Georgetown big man Timothy Ighoefe by the neck while Ighoefe was going up for what looked like an easy bucket. Walker became the 16th player in tournament history to shoot at least five 3s and make them all. By making the surprise trip to the tournament, Ewing alleviated some of the heat he was starting to feel back home.

WATCH LIVE: President Biden to sign order for govt to buy more US goods

BALTIMORE – President Joe Biden plans to sign on Monday an executive order that aims to boost government purchases from U.S. manufacturers, according to administration officials. The United States has shed roughly 540,000 factory jobs since last February as the coronavirus pandemic hurled the world's largest economy into recession. Biden's order would modify the rules for the Buy American program, making it harder for contractors to qualify for a waiver and sell foreign-made goods to federal agencies. The government helped save the automotive sector after the 2008 financial crisis, but the number of factory jobs has been steadily shrinking over the course of four decades. The number of U.S. manufacturing jobs peaked in 1979 at 19.5 million and now totals 12.3 million, according to the Labor Department.

The decision to reverse the order is not surprising, but the addition of South Africa to the restricted travel list highlights the new administration’s concern about mutations in the virus. The South Africa variant has not been discovered in the United States, but another variant — originating in the United Kingdom — has been detected in several states.
