Peavy had seven rebounds, seven assists, and six steals for the Hoyas (16-10, 7-8 Big East Conference). Jayden Epps scored 18 points, shooting 5 for 9 (2 for 5 from 3-point range) and 6 of 6 from the free-throw line. Drew Fielder shot 4 of 11 from the field, including 2 for 7 from 3-point range, and went 7 for 7 from the line to finish with 17 points, while adding nine rebounds.
Bensley Joseph led the Friars (12-15, 6-10) in scoring, finishing with 25 points, six rebounds, four assists and three steals. Justyn Fernandez added 11 points and Jayden Pierre finished with 10 points.
Georgetown took the lead with 7:53 left in the first half and led 48-31 at halftime, with Peavy racking up 19 points. Epps led the way with a team-high 13 second-half points.
Up next for Georgetown is a Sunday matchup with Creighton on the road. Providence visits Marquette on Tuesday.
