Strengths The interior combination of Mourning and Mutombo, one of the nation's best frontcourt tandems, is the heart and soul of this Georgetown squad. Though attempts by some members of the media to anoint the M and M boys as the best frontcourt duo in the history of college are unjustified, this talented pair of big men should give the Blue Devil frontcourt its greatest challenge of the season. Interior defense, due largely to the shotblocking and interior presence of Mourning and Mutombo, is, as always, a strength of the Hoyas. Head coach John Thompson has run one of the most consistently successful programs in the country over the past decade. Weaknesses Once one looks beyond Mourning and Mutombo, question marks abound. The Hoyas start three freshmen at the perimeter slots, and the experienced backcourt help off the bench is adequate at best. Georgetown desperately needs good outside shooting to loosen things up down low for Mourning and Mutombo, and must rely on untested freshman to provide perimeter punch. Ballhandling, depth, and perimeter defense could also be problems. Appraisal This is an interesting game to evaluate, particualarly this early in the season. Duke has the edge in preparation, having played in the preseason NIT while Georgetown has played Hawaii-Loa, Hawaii-Pacific, and Southern Indiana so far this year. The Blue Devils also have the advantage in experience, which could be a significant fac­ tor in a big, early-season game like this. Duke will have better guard play, and should be able to force many turnovers by the youthful Hoya backcourt. If Laettner can play strong inside and Palmer can hold his own defensively and on the boards, then Duke's backcourt should make the difference in this close contest. The ACC tops the MARK WASMER/THE CHRONICLE Big East in this installment of the annual challenge, 69-64. Freshman forward is one of the weapons that Georgetown's twin Bv John Roeser towers of Alonzo Mourning and Dikembe Mutombo will have to handle.
