Series History: Georgetown Leads, 10-4-2
Friday will be the 17th meeting between the Bluejays and Hoyas. Georgetown leads the series 10-4-2, including a 6-1-2 edge on Creighton in Washington, D.C. The Hoyas have won five of the last six meetings, but Creighton's win came in the BIG EAST Championship during the Bluejays' 2022 run to the College Cup.
Scouting #2 Georgetown (13-1-1, 6-0-0 BIG EAST)
The Hoyas enter the meeting with #8 Creighton having won nine straight matches by a combined score of 35-6. Georgetown's lone loss came on September 7 at Maryland, 3-2. The draw was a 1-1 battle with North Carolina in the first contest of the season (Aug. 20).
Charlie DeMarco has played all but 26 minutes in goal this season for the Hoyas, allowing 10 goals in 15 matches with a 0.68 GAA. Offensively Georgetown has 47 goals, led by 10 from Mitchell Baker and nine goals from Matthew Van Horn.
Scouting #9 Creighton (11-0-5, 3-0-3 BIG EAST)
Following three consecutive 1-1 draws, the Bluejays offense returned to the powerful form it had for the majority of the 2026 season. Tallying five goals in a victory over Butler, getting goals from five different players.
Creighton's offense remains guided by defender Matthew Reed with 11 goals, while 12 different players have seen the ball go into the back of the net, while 19 different Bluejays have scored during the 2026 season.
Matthew Hudson has asserted himself as the primary goalkeeper as he continues to get healthy. Hudson has two shutouts and a 6-0-4 mark with a 0.93 GAA.
Bluejays and SMU are the Only Two Undefeated Remaining
Creighton is one of just two programs at the D1 level that enter the weekend undefeated. Along with Creighton at 11-0-5, SMU is 12-0-2.
Bluejays Looking to Continue Undefeated Streak
For the second time in school history, Creighton Men's Soccer has opened the season undefeated through at least 16 matches. The last time the Bluejays opened a season in such fashion was 1993. That season Creighton got off to a 19-0-0 start.
1993: 19-0-0 start under head coach Bob Warming
2026: 11-0-5 start under head coach Johnny Torres
Five Different Bluejays Tally in 5-1 Win Over Butler
Five different players delivered goals for the Bluejays in the 5-1 win over Butler. Ayden Kokoszka got things started with his seventh goal, while Angel Lopez countered with his eighth goal. In the second half Allan Juarez (4), Bautista Rossi (1) and Jordan Igwenma (6) contributed.
Tavares Returns To the Pitch Against Butler
Creighton's offense received a tremendous boost prior to the Butler match as freshman Carter Tavares was cleared to return. Sidelined since September 10 after suffering an injury to his kidney against Saint Mary's College, Tavares returned to the pitch for the first time against the Bulldogs.
Derksen Becomes Just Second Freshman With Three Assists in a Match in Over 20 Years
Freshman Carter Derksen delivered a trio of assists in Creighton's 5-1 win over Butler on October 24. It was the second time in three seasons a Bluejay freshman had delivered three assists in a match as Gavrillo Civric did so against Butler on October 26, 2024. Those two are the only pair of times a freshman has had three assists in a match going back to at least the 2004 season.
