Oct. 16, 2015

WASHINGTON - The No. 10/7 Georgetown University men's soccer squad will travel to DePaul University (3-10-0, 2-2-0 BIG EAST) on Saturday afternoon for a 2 p.m. ET, matchup at Wish Field. The Hoyas are currently 8-2-2 on the season and 4-0-0 in BIG EAST Conference play after defeating Marquette University, 3-0, on Wednesday.

On Monday, three members of the team earned weekly honors as they helped the squad to a 1-0 week in BIG EAST Conference play. Senior forward Brandon Allen (Old Bridge, N.J./St. Joseph), senior defender Cole Seiler (Anderson, S.C./Christ Church Episcopal School) and freshman goalkeeper JT Marcinkowski (Alamo, Calif./De La Salle) were all named to the weekly honor roll by the conference.

Allen scored the eventual game-winning goal in a 2-0 victory over No. 21/19 Butler. It marked his 100th-career point on the Hilltop, moving him to third all-time on the program's career points list. Seiler scored the security goal in the 55th minute in the victory over Butler. The goal was his first of the season. Seiler also helped a back line that led Hoyas to their third-straight shutout, all in BIG EAST play. Marcinkowski rounded it out with four saves and his third-consecutive shutout with the Butler win.
