Jimmy Conrad, making his season debut, scored on a header off a corner kick in the fourth minute to lead the host Kansas City Wizards over the New England Revolution, 1-0, Saturday night.

The Wizards (3-0-0) got their first shutout this season and opened with three wins for the first time in franchise history.

Conrad, playing for the first time since surgery March 31 to repair a sports hernia, headed a high-arching shot from about 10 yards that goalkeeper Matt Reis couldn’t reach.
