BRUNSWICK — Brett Mattos scored off a Cody Elliott free kick midway through the second half Sunday and St. Joseph’s went on to a 1-0 victory against Bowdoin in a nonconference men’s soccer game.

The Monks (5-0) extended their unbeaten streak to 26 games dating to November 2016, tying Tufts in the NCAA tournament last season before losing on penalty kicks. They didn’t allow a regular-season goal last season and have yet to give one up this year.

Elliott delivered the free kick to the left post, where Mattos finished with a side volley to the opposite corner.

Blake Mullen made three saves for the Monks. Chris Kingston turned away seven shots for Bowdoin (1-2).

Adrian Dubois became the Monks’ all-time coaching victories leader with a 55-24-9 record in slightly over four years.
