WASHINGTON – On a sunny afternoon at the GW Lacrosse Field on the Mount Vernon Campus, the George Washington lacrosse team dropped a 21-6 decision to Georgetown.
HOW IT HAPPENED
The Hoyas came out hot from the jump, opening their afternoon with six straight strikes.

The Buff and Blue fired back with a trio of tallies, but the Hoyas closed the half with three more goals to go into the break with an 11-4 advantage.
Georgetown continued its momentum in the game's second stanza with nine straight goals before GW found the back of the net for the first time in the second half with a strike from McDonnell at the 5:30 mark. The Colonials added one more goal to their total with a tally from Christine Weber, but the Hoyas finished the day on top, 21-6.
