Omaha, Neb. -- Creighton Men's Soccer completed a sweep of its two matches in the Jesuit Invitational with a 4-1 win over Santa Clara on Monday, September 7. The win pushed the Bluejays to 5-0-1 on the season, while Santa Clara fell to 2-4-0.
The Bluejays raced out to an early 4-0, including three goals in the opening half.Â
Creighton's first tally came in the 13th minute as freshman Carter Tavares sliced through the Broncos defense to center a ball for junior Angel Lopez's third goal of the season with 12:37 on the clock.
The second goal saw sophomore Ayden Kokoszka deliver his third ball into the back of the net in 2026, finishing a series of touches from fifth-year Allan Juarez and freshman Jordan Igwenma at the 30:52 mark.
With less than two minutes remaining in the half Igwenma notched his fourth goal of the season by gathering a blocked shot from junior Toraji Narazaki with 43:49 showing.
Senior Matthew Reed capped the scoring for Creighton with his team-leading fifth goal in the 53rd minute (52:19), finishing touches by Juarez and junior Bautista Rossi.
