Women's Soccer Wraps Up Non-Conference Play at Georgetown

WASHINGTON, DC – The 10th-ranked South Carolina women’s soccer team (6-1-1) concluded its trip to the nation’s capital, falling to No. 16 Georgetown (3-1-2), 1-0. The game wrapped up nonconference play for the Gamecocks, who kept their opponents to just two goals through eight games.

HOW IT HAPPENED

  • South Carolina came into the first half hot, controlling possession and taking early chances
  • Senior Pepperdine transfer Taylor Bloom was a vital piece to the Gamecock defense, keeping the Hoyas at bay on several occasions throughout the first 30 minutes
  • Freshman Mackenzie Johnson got the first shot off for South Carolina in the 14th minute, missing just high over the crossbar
  • Katie Shea Collins took a chance herself two minutes later, connecting to the back of the net from the left side, but was called offside
  • In the 23rd minute, Reagan Schubach won a ball back outside the 18 and fired straight past a Georgetown defender, but it came off high
  • The Gamecocks took two more chances in the first half, missing chances to get on the board by mere inches
  • In the 38th minute, a handball call on Sophie Johnson set up a penalty kick for Georgetown, which they converted to make things 1-0
  • The stats sheet looked even between both teams in the second half, with neither adding a goal
  • The Gamecocks finished with nine shots and two corners, while keeper Christina Tsaousis tallied two saves
