No. 11/10 Georgetown Draws with No. 21 NC State

WASHINGTON – The No. 11/10 Georgetown women's soccer team drew 2-2 with No. 21 NC State on Sunday night in Raleigh, North Carolina. The Wolfpack falls to 3-0-1 on the season and the Hoyas are now 1-1-2.
 
Head Coach Dave Nolan
"This was another good test for us tonight versus a quality ACC team. I was very happy with how we started and we certainly put in a dominant first half performance. We did a good job on their best attacking threats and created a number of good chances and probably were unlucky not to go in at halftime up by a few goals. They scored out of nowhere on their first real opportunity early in the second half. 
 
Thankfully, the girls responded quickly and tied it up in quick succession. While the second half was more even, we scored another great goal to go up 2-1 and I felt we could see out the game. Unfortunately, they put some real pressure on us and capitalized when we couldn't clear a ball late in the second half.
 
I have a disappointed group right now but I am very proud of the effort tonight. This has been a challenging four-game start which helps set us up for what's to come. We now have to get ready to face an unbeaten Maryland team this Thursday on the road."
