The Georgetown women’s lacrosse team has not been able to put together a solid 60-minute effort on both sides of the ball yet this year, and their recent two-game skid reflects that.

Top 25 teams Duke, Kansas State, Wisconsin, Butler, Gonzaga, and New Mexico are all jostling for position in the polls as February winds down and Selection Sunday approaches.

The Georgetown club cycling team has enjoyed a remarkable resurgence over the past few years, but team president Alex Siegel (SFS ’10) is quick to deflect the credit for the team’s renaissance to a few of his predecessors, Chris Pickett (MED ’07) and A.J. Sikes (COL ’09).

Hopes were high for the Georgetown women’s soccer team heading into this weekend’s Big East quarterfinal tilt with St. John’s, as a win would have put the Hoyas in great position to earn their second NCAA tournament berth in three years.
