CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. - The Boston College men's soccer team shutout BIG EAST opponent Georgetown, 1-0 in a hard-fought conference battle on Newton Campus Soccer Field today.
Freshman Jarryd Goldberg (Ridge, Basking Ridge, N.J.) provided the difference-maker in the 27th minute. He nailed a sliding one-timer into the back of the net off a throw-in from fellow classmate Jamen Amato (Pasadena Polytechnic/Pasadena, Calif.) for the game's only goal.
The goal marked the first of Goldberg's career for the Eagles.
