About the Hoyas

• Georgetown (7-4-3, 5-1-1 BIG EAST) blanked the Seton Hall University Pirates 2-0 in a BIG EAST Conference matchup on Wednesday afternoon at Shaw Field. 
• The victory put the Hoyas alone in first place in the standings with 16 points, however, Xavier sits right behind with 13 points on the season.
• A long ball to the corner from junior Kenny Nielsen was tracked down by a Pirate, but the clear was deflected by Kieran Sargeant. The sophomore sent it across the box and found junior Marlon Tabora who finished with the low shot to make it 1-0 in the 31st minute.
• The game changed in the 84th minute as a flick pass from Tabora sprung freshman Jacob Murrell who got past the defense and lofted a crafty ball over the keeper's head and into the back of the net to make it 2-0 which would stand as the final.
• On Monday, Sargeant was named the BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Week for his efforts against Villanova and in a shutout of Providence earlier in the week.
• It was Georgetown's third weekly award of the year and the third award of Sargeant's career.
• Tabora currently leads the team in scoring with five goals and five assists for 15 points on the season. He is followed by a pair of freshmen as Murrell boasts 13 points (5G, 3A) and Jack Panayotou has eight points on the season with three goals and two assists.
