WASHINGTON, D.C. – George Washington scored twice in the second half and held SJU to just one shot on goal for the full 90:00 to hand the Saint Joseph's men's soccer squad a 2-0 Atlantic 10 loss at the GW Soccer Field on Wednesday afternoon. With the loss, the Hawks fall to 5-10-1 (1-5-0 A-10) while the Colonials improve to 5-9-1 (3-3-0 A-10).

Eight other Atlantic 10 teams will play this evening at 7:00 p.m., and standings will be updated at Atlantic10.com following those finishes.

How It Happened
• George Washington took five shots in the first half, landing two on goal, but Saint Joseph's sophomore goalkeeper Joseph Boehm (5-10-1, 1-5-0 A-10) made the pair of stops just 67 seconds apart (16:11, 17:18) to keep the Colonials off the scoreboard through the first 45:00.
• GW's Haukur Hilmarsson took a shot from the top of the 18' after a deflection in the box and fired the ball off of the hands of a diving Boehm for the match's first goal (61').
• Freshman centerback Alex Hartmann landed SJU's lone shot on goal for the match (71'), on a header saved by GW's goalkeeper Noah Lubin.
• Just minutes after subbing onto the pitch as a tactical substitute for Hartman, senior midfielder Dontrim Namani got hit with a straight red card following a physical play with GW (74'). 
• Saint Joseph's played with 10 men for the final 16:14, and GW capitalized by scoring its second goal, off the foot of Alhaji Turay (78').

Behind the Stats
