LOS ANGELES – No. 13-ranked UCLA dropped a 5-1 decision to visiting No. 6 Georgetown on Monday evening at Wallis Annenberg Stadium.
It was the third consecutive game against a top-10 team for the Bruins (2-2-0), who knocked off defending national champion and then-No. 1 Maryland by a score of 3-2 on Friday night.
UCLA took an early lead in Monday's contest after junior forward Milan Iloski found the back of the net at the 2:01 mark.
Junior midfielder Marcony Pimentel sparked the play, making a nice turn at the center line and starting a rush for UCLA.
Eventually, sophomore mid Cody Sundquist played a ball down the right flank for junior defender Ben Reveno, who swung a ball in towards the box. Junior midfielder Eric Iloski had a chance at the ball, but instead let it to go past him where his brother Milan was waiting to poke it into the net near post with his left foot.
3': Someone might want to mark this guy.

UCLA had a decent opportunity to double its lead in the 14th minute, as freshman defender Constantinos Michaelides picked off a ball in the midfield and started a counter-attack for UCLA. Michaelides exchanged a few passes while progressing up the field with Pimentel, and the latter ended up uncorking a shot that went just over the bar.
From there, it was all Georgetown as the Hoyas potted two goals in the first half before netting another three in the second stanza.
Midfielder Zach Riviere recorded a hat track for Georgetown, scoring his team's first two goals before capping off his three-score day with a 68th minute marker.
The Hoyas ended up outshooting the Bruins 15-4 for the game.
A pair of Bruins made their collegiate debuts on Monday.
Redshirt sophomore keeper Cameron Douglas played 24:58 minutes in net and made three saves. His earned his first two career saves the hard way, making a point-blank stop in the 77th minute before recovering to make a lunging foot-save of a second-chance shot.
That's one way to get your first career save.
