No. 12 Georgetown Takes Care of Bulldogs

WASHINGTON D.C. - The Butler men's soccer team was forced into a defensive stance against a strong No. 12 Georgetown side, eventually falling by the final score of 5-0. The Hoyas (6-1-1, 3-0-0 BIG EAST) scored once in the first half and then tacked on four in the second, allowing the Bulldogs (1-6-1, 1-2-0 BIG EAST) only one shot on goal throughout the match.
 
Key Moments
  • 31' | Georgetown attacks right up the middle, maneuvering around Butler's defensive line and sliding a shot under Caleb Norris. The Hoyas are up, 1-0.
    **Halftime**
  • 52' | A hard and low Georgetown cross, just feet in front of the goal, ricochets off a Butler defender directly into the net. The Hoyas are up by two.
  • 67' | The Hoyas score from 12 yards out into the left side of the net.
  • 76' | Butler's defense loses the ball just outside the area and three quick passes from the Hoyas sets up a fourth goal.
  • 81' | A Georgetown service from the left side of the box finds a foot on the far post and the volley puts the Hoyas up five.
Bulldog Bits
  • Six Bulldogs registered one shot in the match, as Nick Graziano produced Butler's only shot on goal.
