Box Score

WASHINGTON, D.C. ? Playing against the #1 team in the country and fighting for a spot in the BIG EAST Championship, Georgetown tied St. John?s 0-0 in Saturday afternoon men?s soccer action on North Kehoe Field.

Through 110 minutes of play the two teams battled to a hard fought scoreless draw. Georgetown goalkeeper Tim Hogan (Richmond, Va./Freeman) and his sturdy defense helped blank the Red Storm, allowing just seven shots on goal through two overtime periods. Hogan roamed the Hoya end, charging out to quash a number of promising St. John?s attacks and relying on the excellent defensive play of Jeff Curtin (Oreland, Pa./Germantown Academy) and Dan Gargan (Philadelphia, Pa./Chestnut Hill Academy) to contain the speedy Red Storm forwards. Hogan finished the afternoon with six saves and Kaiser Chowdhry (Columbia, Md./McDonogh) led all Georgetown attackers with three shots.

Georgetown plays its final BIG EAST game of the season on Monday November 4th at 2:30 p.m. against West Virginia in Morgantown, W.Va.
