George's Army Brings the Noise to the Smith Center
The GW Men’s Basketball team is off to its best start since the 2015-16 season. Following the highly anticipated Miracle on 22nd Street pregame tailgate for a game against a Power Five opponent, energy carried over inside the Smith Center as a packed George's Army student section spilled over its allotted 1,000 seats into a second side of the arena.
"The fans are like a sixth player on the floor for us," said senior guard James Bishop, who scored 24 points, dished out eight assists and grabbed three rebounds that night. "They were there from the jump, and we love that support."
