For the second straight year, Marquette women’s soccer dropped its BIG EAST opener, losing 3-0 to No. 12 Georgetown Sunday afternoon.
The Hoyas came out firing as forward Paula Germino-Watnick attempted the first shot of the game in the 2nd minute. Marquette senior goalkeeper Maddy Henry made the save to keep the game scoreless.
In the 16th minute from 30 yards out, Hoyas midfielder Julia Leas found the back of the net to put the reigning BIG EAST champions on the board.
Three minutes into the second half, forward Boo Jackson connected on a cross into the box with forward Amanda Carolan, who scored and increased Georgetown’s lead to 2-0.
