WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Raiders recorded eight shots against the Hoyas, but an overtime goal by Georgetown handed Colgate a 1-0 road loss.
GARETH TERRETT'S COMMENTS
"Losing in overtime is frustrating, especially after the effort and commitment the players put into the game. I thought they showed tremendous character, resilience and determination throughout, and I am proud of the way they continued to compete. The weather and pitch conditions made it a challenging game, and I thought our players showed great adaptability and commitment in dealing with those difficulties. At the same time, we know there are areas where we need to be better, particularly in those key moments that ultimately decide close games. We will learn from this experience, take the positives and continue to push forward as a group. This team has made real progress, and our focus now is on turning those performances into results."
