Johnnies Extend Shutout Streak to Six With 1-0 Win at UW-Superior


Box Score

SUPERIOR, Wis. – Saint John's soccer extended its win streak to six games with a 1-0 shutout at Wisconsin-Superior on Saturday, Sept. 12.

The Johnnies (6-0-0 overall) have now started the 2026 season with a 540-minute shutout streak.

Freshman defender Billy Cornett (Minneapolis, Minn./Cretin-Derham Hall) broke the stalemate with his team-leading fourth goal of the season with 23:51 remaining in the game. Sophomore midfielder James Torguson (Shakopee, Minn.) launched a corner kick to the near post for Cornett, who ran in from the top of the box and one-touched it into the goal.

The 6-0 start to the season is SJU's best since 2005 – head coach Tudor Flintham's senior season – when it reached the NCAA Division III playoffs thanks to the MIAC playoff championship and finished with a 14-3-3 (7-2-1 MIAC) record. 

Sophomore goalkeeper Alex Keekley (St. Louis Park, Minn./Minnetonka) made a season- and career-high seven saves for his fifth shutout in five starts this fall.

SJU registered statistical advantages over UWS (1-2-1 overall) in shots (21-12), shots on goal (11-7) and corner kicks (12-3).

The Johnnies open MIAC play with a 4 p.m. game at Bethel (3-1-0 overall) on Tuesday, Sept. 15, in Arden Hills.
