Kicking It With Georgetown Women’s Soccer

After an entire first half with many near-perfect attempts but no goals on the field against St. John's, the Georgetown women's soccer team was itching to get on the scoreboard and take control of last Tuesday's game. Minutes into the second half, sophomore defender Courtney Kent came off the bench to capitalize on a throw-in from freshman midfielder Samantha Baker. Heading Baker's throw into the goal, Kent scored the Hoyas' lone goal of the game, defeating St. John's 1-0. The victory marked Georgetown's eleventh win in a season that most had predicted to be mediocre at best.
