Johns Hopkins Hands Washington College, 2-1, Loss

Martinez Nets Game-winner for the Blue Jays

The Basics
• Score: Johns Hopkins-2, Washington College-1
• Records: JHU (6-3-0, 1-2-0 CC) • WC (4-4-1, 1-2-0 CC)
• Location: Baltimore, MD • Homewood Field
• The Short Story: The Johns Hopkins men's soccer team jumped out to a 2-0 lead and went on to defeat visiting Washington College, 2-1, on Wednesday afternoon in Centennial Conference action.  
 
How it Happened
• Johns Hopkins wasted little time in getting on the scoreboard as the Blue Jays cashed in on some beautiful tic-tac-toe passing. Junior Connor Jacobs dribbled in towards the Shoremen's box and then played the ball to sophomore Pablo Martinez. He one-touched a pass to an on-running Griffin Cyphers, who blasted a shot inside the right post in the seventh minute.
• The Blue Jays pushed their lead to two in the 31st minute as this time Martinez was on the receiving end of a Cyphers' pass. Cyphers stole the ball from a Washington College defender, carried the ball about 20 yards and then passed to a trailing Martinez. He took one touch and then slotted the ball under Shoremen goalie Josh Samuels from about 10 yards out.
• Washington College got on the board and cut the deficit in half off a throw-in in the 43rd minute. Brian Graham sent the throw-in from the left sideline deep in to the Blue Jay box and Del Jenkins touched it in at the far post.
 
What it Means
• Hopkins improves to 47-25-2 all-time against Washington College, including 23-3-0 in regular season Centennial Conference matches.
 
Inside the Box Score
• Cyphers' goal was the first of his career and he finished with a career-best three points. Martinez also finished with three points as he picked up his first career assists.
• Hopkins outshot Washington College, 10-3, and had a 6-3 advantage in corners. The Blue Jays played a man-down for the final 25 minutes after Cyphers was assessed a red card. The Shoremen were held without a shot for the final 29 minutes.
 
Up Next
• Hopkins returns to action on Saturday, September 29 as the Blue Jays travel to Allentown, PA to take on the Muhlenberg Mules. Game time at Varsity Field is slated for 6:00 pm.
