Pepperdine Women’s Soccer tied the no. 18 Georgetown Hoyas at Tari Frahm Rokus Field on Aug. 17, with a final score of 1-1. Without a cloud in sight, the California sun beat down on the field in 80-degree weather.
The relatively young Waves faced off against the older, more experienced Hoyas. Last year, the Hoyas made it to the second round of the NCAA Women’s Soccer tournament, according to the NCAA. After a scoreless first half, the Hoyas made the game 0-1 during the second half, only for the Waves to score a last-minute goal to tie the game up once more.
