BOXSCORE

MINNEAPOLIS (8/30/02) -- Bosompem Danso (So., Ghana/Accua Academy) scored on a feed from Shane Turner (Sr., Winnipeg, Manitoba/Sisler HS), giving the Wartburg College men's soccer team its lone goal en route to a 1-0 shutout of host Augsburg College in a nonconference match Friday night at Augsburg's Edor Nelson Field.

It was the first game of the season for both teams.

Danso, a substitute, took a feed from Turner near midfield and sprinted 40 yards past the Auggie defense, sliding a shot to the right past Auggie starting goalie Han Zeller (Jr., Winona, Minn.) in the 32nd minute. Chad Clausen (Fr., St. Paul, Minn./Highland Park HS) replaced Zeller in goal in the second half. Zeller made four saves, while Clausen didn't have to make a save in his time in goal.

Collin Lane (So., Muscatine, Iowa) made 15 saves to pick up the shutout win for Wartburg. Verne Houston (So., Omaha, Neb./Benson HS) led Wartburg with seven shots, while Mike Elcano (So., Sparks, Nev./Bishop Manogue HS) had eight shots to lead Augsburg.

Augsburg returns to soccer action as the second half of a doubleheader on Sunday (9/1), hosting Simpson (Iowa) at 3:30 p.m. at Edor Nelson Field.
