The GW men’s soccer team finished its season with two Atlantic 10 road losses this weekend at St. Joseph’s and Temple.

The Colonials (3-12-2, 2-8-1 A-10) were not able to carry over the success they had in Ohio last weekend when they defeated Xavier and tied Dayton. In both contests in Philadelphia, GW fell behind in the first half and was not able to score a goal despite having 23 shots in the two games.

The Colonials were outscored 31-17 this season and were shut out five times in conference play.
