Colonials to host Robert Morris on Saturday

WASHINGTON – The George Washington lacrosse team made the short trip to Georgetown on Tuesday afternoon, falling 13-4 at Cooper Field.

HOW IT HAPPENED
The Colonials were the first to find the back of the net, with sophomore Ioanna Mantzouratos converting quickly off the draw to put GW on the board just two minutes into the game. Georgetown quickly responded with a goal of its own a minute later, before adding five more tallies to contribute to its offensive effort. The Colonials struck once more in the half, with Katie Quinn scoring from the free position, but the Hoyas went into the break with a 6-2 advantage.

The Hoyas continued to press in the second half, scoring seven more times while the Colonials were only able to net two more, to finish the day on top.

NOTEWORTHY
• Quinn led the Colonials offensively with one goal and one assist. Manztouratos, Aidan Cage, and Tori Hampton also added one goal each.
• Catie Perkins paced GW off the draw, grabbing a game-high six, while captain Caroline Kiernan registered five of her own.
• GW was the better squad off the draw, holding an 11-8 advantage, while the Hoyas led in ground balls (22-11) and shots (39-18).
• Sophomore goalkeeper Jenna Oler played all 60 minutes, faced 30 shots and came up with a career-high matching 17 saves. Haelle Chomo also played a full 60 for the Hoyas between the pipes, making nine saves against 13 shots.

UP NEXT
The Colonials will be back in action on Saturday at 1 p.m. to host Robert Morris at the GW Lacrosse Field on the Mount Vernon Campus.
