Kelsey Ransom scored 14 points to lead sixth-seeded Georgetown to a 55-46 upset of No. 21 Creighton in the Big East Tournament semifinals. Alex Cowan added 12 points for the Hoyas , who have won six games in a row to strengthen their case for an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. Morgan Maly had 14 points, but hit just five of her 15 shots for the No. 2 seed Bluejays , who saw their four-game win streak snapped.
Creighton went scoreless for five minutes of the third quarter before a pair of free throws from McKayla Miller. The Hoyas led by eight points, 41-33, heading into the fourth quarter and were able to keep the Bluejays at arm's length over the final 10 minutes.
