The Red Storm and Beavers to square off for first time ever
QUEENS, N.Y. – Unbeaten in five straight games, the St. John's men's soccer team will look to continue its recent success when it closes out the 2024 regular season against The City College of New York at Belson Stadium on Monday.
The 6 p.m. contest from Queens will be streamed to FloFC and live stats will be available on RedStormSports.com.
St. John's (7-5-5, 5-1-2 BIG EAST) secured the Co-BIG EAST East Division title and earned the No. 3 seed in the conference tournament with a 2-0 victory over No. 18 Georgetown on Saturday. Nigel Griffith registered his first career brace in just 36 minutes off the bench in the team's upset of the Hoyas. Through eight conference games, the Stroudsburg, Pa., native matched Martin Kozak for the team lead in goals with three.
With the win, the Johnnies secured its first win against a ranked BIG EAST opponent at Belson Stadium since Sept. 20, 2019, when the team took down No. 19 Xavier, 3-1. The clean sheet against the Hoyas also marked the first ranked shutout victory since a 1-0 triumph over then-No. 10 Georgetown on Oct. 28, 2017.
Julian Jakopovic matched his career-high in assists (4) and points (6) after logging a helper and playing a full 90 minutes on Saturday. The Red Storm defender has logged 90 minutes of action in 16 of his 17 starts.
Four Johnnies enter the team's final contests with nine points or more, including team leader Miguel Diaz with 11 points (3G, 4A). Griffith (3G, 3A), Kozak (4G, 1A) and Tyler Morck (4G, 1A) round out the leading point-getters this season with nine points apiece.
St. John's will face CCNY for the first time in program history when the two teams square off on Monday.
Fresh off an unblemished 5-0-2 record in conference play, the Beavers will look to rebound from its CUNYAC Tournament semifinal setback to Hunter College. CCNY fell in overtime to the Hawks, 2-1, despite a penalty kick equalizer from Aliou Ndiaye in the 76th minute.
The Beavers topped the CUNYAC with a .760 save percentage through the regular season while ranking second with a 1.79 goals against average.
Slated to make its 31st appearance in the BIG EAST Soccer Championship, third-seeded St. John's will host sixth-seeded Seton Hall in its quarterfinal matchup on Saturday, Nov. 9. Kick-off from Queens is slated for 5 p.m.
