1928–29 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team
The 1928–29 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team represented Georgetown University during the 1928-29 NCAA Division I college basketball season. Elmer Ripley coached it in his second season as head coach.〔(The Georgetown Basketball History Project: Head Coaches )〕 Georgetown was an independent and played its home games to Clendenen Gymnasium on the campus of American University in Washington, D.C., this season, the only Georgetown team to use Clendenen Gymnasium as its home court,〔(The Georgetown Basketball History Project: Home Courts )〕 although Georgetown played a handful of games there early the next season. It finished the season with a record of 12-5.
==Season recap==
Junior guard and team captain Fred Mesmer had become a starter and team leader in his first varsity season the previous year. He was an important defensive presence for the team during the season and an excellent passer. He led the Hoyas in scoring, averaging 8.5 points per game.〔(The Georgetown Basketball History Project: The Top 100: 83. Fred Mesmer )〕
Junior center Don Dutton, who had emerged as a standout the previous season, moved to forward in a notable 33-17 Georgetown victory at Yale on January 2, 1929, in the opening game of the Yale Quadrangular Invitational Tournament. Ten days later, he played a key role in what at the time was perhaps the greatest comeback in Georgetown men's basketball history, scoring 15 of the Hoyas last 17 points as Georgetown came back from a 13-point deficit against Penn State with five minutes left in the game to win 42-40. Like Mesmer, Dutton finished the year averaging 8.5 points per game.〔(The Georgetown Basketball History Project: The Top 100: 85. Don Dutton )〕
Ironically, Ripleys display of his coaching abilities in the big win at Yale so impressed Yale that Yale hired Ripley away from Georgetown;〔 after two very successful seasons as the Hoyas head coach in which he had an overall record of 24-6, Ripley left Georgetown at the end of the season to take the head coaching position at Yale. Destined to become a legend in college basketball, he would return to coach Georgetown two more times over a total of eight more seasons, from 1938 to 1943 – leading the Hoyas to the final game of the 1943 NCAA Tournament in the latter season – and again from 1946 to 1949. Meanwhile, Georgetown hired his assistant Bill Dudack to coach the team the following season.〔
