BOSTON, MA - Doug MacCallum '10 (Hingham, MA) scored the game's only goal, on a free kick in the 62nd minute, to propel Saint Joseph's (10-6-1, 6-2 GNAC) past Emmanuel (3-13, 1-7-1) in GNAC men's soccer on Saturday afternoon.
Monks keeper Will Pike '10 (Gorham, ME) made three saves to collect his ninth shutout of the fall and break his own single-season record, which he set last year. The senior netminder now has 17 career shutouts in less than two seasons at Saint Joseph's and has allowed just three goals in his last 638 minutes of play.
St. Joe's outshot Emmanuel by a 10-5 margin and held a 4-2 advantage in corner kicks in the conference conquest.
Saints keeper Patrick Froass '12 (Oneida, NY) made three stops in the losing effort.
The SJC defensive effort has been stout all season long, as the Monks led the GNAC in fewest goals allowed (15) and goals allowed per game (0.97) as of October 19th.
St. Joe's will play at Amherst College on Sunday at 2:30 PM. The Lord Jeffs were ranked fifth in New England in the latest NSCAA Poll.
With the loss, Emmanuel completes its 2009 campaign.
