Final-Second Heist Propels Georgia to Jaw-Dropping Upset Over No. 22 St. John's!

November 25, 2024

NASSAU, Bahamas (AP) — In a heart-stopping finale to an enthralling matchup, the Georgia Bulldogs secured a pivotal 66-63 victory over the No. 22 St. John's Red Storm on Sunday in the Bahamas. The narrow victory can be attributed in large part to Asa Newell's resounding performance and an opportunistic steal by Silas Demary Jr. in the final seconds of the contest.

The game was a hard-fought battle, with both teams exchanging baskets throughout the matchup. Newell's 18-point outing undoubtedly played a substantial role in Georgia's win, but Demary Jr.'s clutch steal will be remembered as the turning point in the game.

As the clock ticked down, the intensity in the arena reached a boiling point. With only seconds left to play and St. John's trailing by a whisker, the Red Storm valiantly attempted to tie the score. However, Demary Jr. was prepared to pounce on the opportunity, cleverly intercepting a pass and thwarting St. John's' last-ditch effort to force overtime.

"I saw it unfolding, and I knew I had to react quickly," said Demary Jr. in the post-game interview. "My teammates played incredible defense, and I just had to make a play. I'm grateful I could contribute to the win in such a crucial moment."

Georgia's win marked a significant upset in the college basketball world, catapulting the Bulldogs into the limelight. For the Red Storm, however, the loss serves as a wake-up call to bolster their defense, particularly in situations where every second counts.

The nail-biting finish drew praise from both teams, with many players hailing the spirited competition. As both teams look to build upon this hard-fought contest, one thing is clear: Georgia's last-second heist will be remembered as one of the season's most pivotal moments.
