ST. GEORGE, Utah. – David Sweeney added another career record on Sunday, moving into first place on the career-shutouts list after San José State (5-4-4, 2-1-1 WAC) knocked off Utah Tech (6-5, 2-1 WAC) 3-0 on Sunday afternoon.

  • The shutout is Sweeney's 19th in his career.
  • The senior keeper broke the career-saves record on Thursday at UNLV.
  • The Spartans got the lead after a 25th-minute goal from Angel Fernandez on the assists from Gaku Nishimura.

  • The goal is Nishimura's third of the season, and it's Adam's first assist of the year.
  • Mario Barocio scored his first goal of the season with just a few seconds remaining to make it 3-0.
