{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Washington, DC (SportsNetwork.com) - Georgetown University's football program will play six home matchups as part of an 11-game schedule in head coach Rob Sgarlata's first season.
The Patriot League school, which announced the schedule Wednesday, will kick off the season on Aug. 30 by hosting Wagner at Multi-Sport Field.
The Hoyas also will host Brown (Sept. 20) and Harvard (Oct. 4) in other non- league games, and Patriot League opponents Bucknell (Oct. 25, Homecoming), Lehigh (Nov. 1) and Holy Cross (Nov. 22).
