WASHINGTON – On a rainy afternoon at the GW Soccer Field on the Mount Vernon Campus, the George Washington women's soccer team fell to George Mason, 2-0. Despite outshooting the Patriots, 22-11, the Colonials could not find the back of the net, as the team dropped its first match at home in conference play.
