Hoyas return home, drop fourth straight

The feeling in the Georgetown locker room after their 28-3 loss to Lehigh was much different than after their last home game four weeks earlier. Then, the Hoyas celebrated their first victory under new Head Coach Kevin Kelly and were poised to make a hopefully successful three-game road trip. Now, they find themselves in the middle of a four-game losing streak after the Mountain Hawks spoiled their return home to the Yard.

Hoyas ruffle Hens’ feathers

Georgetown tennis continues to show rapid progress under the leadership of new Head Coach Gordie Ernst. After being routed by the University of Delaware last spring in a 6-1 loss, the Hoyas avenged the loss this past Sunday with a 4-3 victory over the Blue Hens at the McDonough Tennis Complex.

FAST BREAK: Point guard commits to Georgetown

Schramm’s hat trick leads GU

Sometimes all it takes is a standout performance from your star player. Other times it’s just taking a respite from the rigors of Big East action. And sometimes it’s a little bit of both. Led by senior co-captain Ricky Schramm’s three goals, the Georgetown men’s soccer team snapped a four-game losing streak and trounced on the visiting Howard Bison 5-0 Tuesday afternoon.

Colgate too fresh for Hoyas

If the Hoyas weren’t a little homesick after their 0-2 start to a three-game road trip, their 31-14 loss to Colgate (2-2, 1-0 PL) last Saturday had the boys in Blue and Gray feeling green.

Volleyball spiked by Syracuse comeback

The Lady Hoyas (5-10) could not hold on to a dominating 2-0 lead against their rival Syracuse (4-15) at home on Sunday. The ladies endured a crushing 3-2 defeat as they ceded the last three games to Syracuse to fall to 0-3 in the Big East play while Syracuse improved to a 1-3 record.

Curse Madden

It’s hard to believe that stupid superstitions ever come true. And then they do. I’m at work when I get the call. It’s my little cousin and rival fantasy football team owner Gregory.

“Two words man,” he says. “Madden. Curse.”

Pirates steal win from Hoyas

In what is becoming a theme for the season, the Georgetown men’s soccer team (3-7-0, 2-4-0 BE) dropped their third game in a row, 2-1 in another overtime heartbreaker after failing to put away a number of chances against the visiting No. 21 Seton Hall Pirates (7-3-0, 5-1-0 BE).

Women shutout for fourth straight game

Soccer, like many other sports, can be a game of streaks. You win some, you lose some and sometimes these wins and losses come in bunches. The Lady Hoyas soccer team is currently riding a losing streak of four games after a 1-0 loss at Seton Hall this past Sunday.

Comeback, almost

Last Saturday when Georgetown’s football team squared off against Columbia for their second straight Ivy League bout, they were greeted with a decidedly snobby 20-0 run that proved to be too much for the fighting Hoyas to overcome.

This week’s Monday Night Football game featured the Atlanta Falcons playing at the New Orleans Saints. For the first time since the 2004/05 NFL season, “playing at the New Orleans Saints” really meant playing at the New Orleans Saints.

Have a heart

It’s hard to feel compassion for those we hate. We cannot possibly conceive of a way to feel the faintest touch of guilt for despising a seemingly selfish and egotistical human being. But sometimes our preconceived notions of a person and our perceptions of their character are purely superficial and keep us from really understanding the person “underneath the pads.”

Hoyas draw first blood, Bears claw back for win

When the Georgetown football team found the end zone to open Saturday’s game, it was the first time since the end of the 2004 season that the Hoyas scored a touchdown in the opening quarter of a game.

GU heartbreaker

Sometimes in sports, things don’t go the way they should. The Georgetown women’s soccer team (3-3-3, 0-1 BE) lost their final non-conference game of the season last Sunday against the James Madison Dukes (4-4-0) in a 1-0 game they should have won.

Hoyas get first BE win, then fall to Rutgers

Soccer matches are not usually decided in the final minutes of play, but the Georgetown men’s soccer team (3-5-0, 2-2-0 BE) played two such contests over the weekend as they split a pair of Big East road games.
