The No. 13 Georgetown Hoyas (12-0-2) fell in penalty kicks to No. 4 Texas Christian University (12-1-2) on a hot and rainy Wednesday evening in Cary, North Carolina in the Sweet Sixteen. The two teams ended the second overtime knotted at 1 apiece, and, after a stoppage due to lightning, TCU pulled away at the spot. Junior midfielder Maya Fernandez-Powell scored for the Hoyas in regulation, while sophomore midfielder Michelle Slater equalized for the Horned Frogs.
The loss marks the second consecutive season that Georgetown failed to make it to the NCAA Tournament quarterfinals following their run to the College Cup in 2018. Last season, the Hoyas fell in the first round to West Virginia. While Georgetown advanced further this year, they were stopped in their tracks by TCU’s senior goalie Emily Alvarado throughout the game. The Horned Frogs will go on to face unranked University of Virginia in the Elite 8 on Sunday.
