Men's Hockey 1/27/01 -- Augsburg 6, Hamline 4
MINNEAPOLIS (1/27/01) -- Augsburg College scored five goals in the first 11 minutes of play Saturday night, and needed every one as the Auggies held off a pesky Hamline University squad in a 6-4 victory Saturday night in a Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference men's hockey game at the Augsburg Ice Arena.

Brad Holzinger (So., North Oaks, Minn./Hill-Murray HS) scored twice to lead the Auggies, who improved to 8-9-2 overall and 5-4-1 in the MIAC with the victory. Hamline dropped to 9-10-0 overall and 2-8-0 in the MIAC. Augsburg completed the series sweep of the Pipers, having beaten Hamline 7-5 on Friday night.

With goals from Mike Jackson (Sr., Ramsey, Minn./Elk River HS), Joe Johnson (Jr., Ramsey, Minn./Anoka HS) and Joe Pontrelli (Fr., Eagan, Minn.) in the first 3:09, combined with goals from Jake Wegscheider (Jr., Little Canada, Minn./Roseville HS) and Wegscheider in a 47-second span midway through the first period, it appeared that an Auggie rout was imminent.

However, Hamline regrouped, changed goalies twice, and got back into the game with two goals in the closing minutes of the first period and two power-play tallies in the second period. Peter Contardo (So., Spokane, Wash.) had two goals for the Pipers, in the middle of goals from Troy Urdahl (Sr., Litchfield, Minn.) and Nate Cary (Fr., Cloquet, Minn.) to cut into the Auggie lead.

Holzinger scored his second goal of the game on a 4-on-4 situation midway through the second period, an important insurance goal for the Auggies.

Hamline outshot the Auggies by a 39-38 margin, peppering Auggie goalie Ryan McIntosh (Sr., Calgary, Alberta/Bishop Grandin HS) with 17 shots on goal in the second period and 14 in the third.

The Auggies knocked two Hamline goalies out of the game in the first period, and Andy Gross (So., West St. Paul, Minn.) played the bulk of the game in the nets for the Pipers.

Joe Johnson (Jr., Ramsey, Minn./Anoka HS) had a goal and assist for the Auggies, while Shawn Smith (So., Temagami, Ontario/E.C. Drury HS) had two assists.

Augsburg faces St. Mary's University in an MIAC series next weekend, hosting the Cardinals on Friday (2/2) at 7 p.m. at Augsburg Ice Arena and traveling to Winona, Minn., on Saturday (2/3) at 7:05 p.m. Hamline hosts St. John's at the State Fair Coliseum in St. Paul, Minn. on Friday at 7 p.m., and plays the Johnnies at the National Hockey Center in St. Cloud, Minn., Sunday (2/4) at 2 p.m.
