WASHINGTON, D.C. – The No. 18 Providence College men's soccer team fell to No. 7 Georgetown in the 2021 BIG EAST Championship Game, 2-1, in overtime on Nov. 14 in Washington, D.C. 
 
VENUE 
Shaw Field • Washington, D.C. 
 
GAME FLOW 
• Georgetown nearly took a 1-0 lead just 48-seconds into the match as Will Sands found Stefan Stojanovic in the middle of the box. Stojanovic laced a low shot just wide of the right post. 
Gevork Diarbian had the Friars' first look at goal just inside the 16, but his attempt was saved by Giannis Nikopolidis. 
Simon Triantafillou chipped a ball into the six-yard box to 6-foot-7-inch Davis Smith in the 22nd minute, but Smith's head was saved by Nikopolidis. 
Lukas Burns made two clutch saves in the 28th and 32nd minute; both of which were point blank attempts by the Hoyas. He got his hand on the first in a diving effort to his left; and the second he was able to haul in off a one-time attempt. 
• The Friars' leading goal scorer Brendan McSorley connected on a header in the 35th minute, but his effort sailed high of the net. 
• The Hoyas were awarded a free kick with 48-second left in the opening half. The ball was loose in the box for a short time before Sean Zawadzki fired a shot high and out of play. 
• The game was a scoreless draw through the first 45 minutes. 
• Georgetown led in shots (7-3), shots on goal (3-2) and corner kicks (2-0). 
• The Hoyas were awarded a penalty kick in the 51st minute, and Stojanovic stepped up and sent a low shot over the goal line just inside the right post. 
• After a collision in the box between McSorley and Nikopolidis, Paulo Lima was selected to take a penalty at 63:05. Lima's bid was denied, and nearly collected his own rebound for the another look at the net, but Georgetown cleared the ball from danger.  
• Smith put another header toward the goal with just under 10 minutes to play, but his was wide and led to a corner kick. 
• After a bit of offensive pressure from the Friars it was McSorley who scored the equalizer on a right-footed shot from the right side of the box (1-1) in the 84th minute. The goal was assisted by Lima and Gil Santos.   
• The match went to overtime tied, 1-1. 
• Providence earned back-to-back corner kicks four minutes into the extra session, but were unable to get a solid effort toward the net. 
• Georgetown's Stojanovic netted the golden goal at 95:34 to give the Hoyas their fifth BIG EAST title since 2015. 
 
NOTES 
• The loss marked the Friars first OT loss of the season and moved to 1-1-4 in overtime games this year. 
• Burns finished the day with seven saves. 
• McSorley recorded two goals in the tournament; The game winner in the semifinals and the equalizer in the title game to force OT. 
• Providence finished as runner-up at the BIG EAST Championship for the fifth time in program history. 
• Burns, McSorley and Diarbian were named to the BIG EAST All-Tournament Team. 
• The Friars will await word on its NCAA selection, which is scheduled to be announced on Monday, Nov. 15 at 1:00 p.m. on NCAA.com.
