Alex Kapp brought his “A-game” to the Morrison Stadium pitch on Wednesday night. The graduate transfer from Boston College showed off his flexibility and reaction time on his way to stopping a stadium-record nine shots as the 12th-ranked Bluejays played to a scoreless draw after 110 minutes of intense back and forth action against the 8th-ranked Denver Pioneers.
Creighton’s back line was under fire for much of the second half, but despite creating scoring chances on numerous occasions, the Pioneers could not get anything past CU’s last line of defense.
“He was our savior today,” Creighton coach Elmar Bolowich said of his senior co-captain and shot-stopper.
