Scouting Creighton (4-3-4, 1-2-2 BIG EAST)
As fast as the scoring offense began the 2022 season, Creighton has stalled in BIG EAST play. The Bluejays have notched at least one tally in each match, but each of Creighton's last three goals have come via a Duncan McGuire penalty kick.
McGuire leads the team with 20 points on nine goals and two assist, while Owen O'Malley and Jackson Castro have each delivered six goals. Sophomore Giorgio Probo brings a team-high seven assists, but has been bottled up since a penalty kick at Georgetown on Sept. 4.
Goalkeeper Paul Kruse has been solid, but stumbled in Creighton's 3-1 loss to No. 13 Xavier on Wednesday. He has allowed 15 goals in 11 contests, including eight in five BIG EAST matches.
Scouting Seton Hall (6-1-5, 3-0-3 BIG EAST)
The Pirates search for plunder has been unquenchable of late as Seton Hall has not tasted defeat since Sept. 5 at Portland (L, 0-1). In six BIG EAST matches the Pirates have claimed consecutive victories over Marquette (W, 3-2) on Oct. 12 and at Connecticut (W, 1-0) on Oct. 8. Those results have Seton Hall perched atop the BIG EAST standings with 12 points. Â
Quenzi Huermann leads SHU with 15 points on six goals and three assists. The second leading scorer is a tight race with five Pirates holding between 5-8 points.
The Pirates have given the bulk of treasure in net to Hannes Ronnholmen. He has played every minute in 11 matches, while Matias Molina saw action in one contest. Ronnholmen has made 38 saves and allowed 11 goals for a 1.00 GAA.

Impact of Overtime
The 2022 season brought one major change to NCAA soccer as overtime periods were eliminated from the regular season. Looking back at the Bluejays' recent history in extra sessions. In the five seasons prior to 2022, Creighton saw 19 matches go into overtime. The Bluejays went 5-5-9 in those contests. Since joining the BIG EAST in 2013, Creighton has played 35 matches (7-11-17) that went into extra time.
Creighton Approaching School Record for Draws
