Auggies earn split with last-minute, 4-2 win at St. John's.

ST. CLOUD, Minn. (12/2/00) -- Mike Jackson (Sr., Ramsey, Minn./Anoka HS) the game-winning goal with 1:21 left in regulation and Jaro Cesky (So., Prague, Czech Republic) made it stand up with an empty-net goal in the final seconds, as Augsburg College claimed a 4-2 victory over host St. John's University in a Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference men's hockey game Saturday afternoon at the National Hockey Center.

Tim Olsen (Fr., Vadnais Heights, Minn./White Bear Lake HS) notched his team-leading seventh goal of the season on he power-pay for the Auggies, tying the game at 1-1 midway through the second period.
