Football 9/10/05 -- Wartburg (Iowa) 29, Augsburg 26

BOXSCORE


WAVERLY, Iowa (9/10/05) -- For the second straight season, the Augsburg College-Wartburg College football battle came down to a field-goal attempt.

Last season, Wartburg connected on a field goal with no time remaining on the clock to clinch a 27-24 victory at Augsburg.

This season, an Augsburg field goal miss as time expired secured Wartburg's 29-26 victory over the Auggies on Saturday night at Wartburg's Walston-Hoover Stadium.

With 2:26 remaining and no time outs at its disposal, Augsburg drove the ball 53 yards to set up for a potential game-tying, 44-yard field goal attempt by Nick Schlieman (Sr., Burnsville, Minn.). But the attempt went wide left as the clock ran out.

The game was the first of the season for Augsburg and marked the collegiate head-coaching debut of Augsburg's Frank Haege. Wartburg is now 1-1 on the season.

The teams combined for 829 yards of total offense -- 404 for Augsburg, 425 for Wartburg.

The game also marked a surprise change in the Auggie lineup. Marcus LeVesseur (Sr., Minneapolis, Minn./Bloomington Kennedy HS), last season's starting quarterback who was slated to be a starting wide receiver this season, replaced starting signal-caller David Lange (So., Minnetonka, Minn./Hopkins HS) after the first series of the game.

LeVesseur, who set Augsburg single-season school records for rushing attempts, yardage and touchdowns last season, rushed for 136 yards on 22 carries and two touchdowns on Saturday, while completing 24-of-35 passes for 242 yards, a touchdown and an interception.

Wartburg opened the scoring on its first drive, as quarterback Reed Hoskins (Sr., Grinnell, Iowa) and Kyle Duchman (So., Cedar Falls, Iowa) combined for a 66-yard scoring pass just 1:56 into the game.

Augsburg answered the score late in the quarter, as LeVesseur ran the ball in from four yards out, but a 51-yard kickoff return by Josh Van Rees set up Wartburg's next score, a 20-yard pass from Hoskins to Duchman.

Augsburg scored on its defense midway through the second quarter, after a Schlieman punt was downed at the Wartburg 1-yard line. A screen pass from the end zone was stopped by defenders Jake Koelln (Sr., Rochester, Minn./John Marshall HS) and Taylor Kroger (Sr., Cottonwood, Minn./Lakeview HS), who pinned the Wartburg receiver in the end zone for a safety, cutting the Wartburg advantage to 13-9.

The Auggies got the ball back on a free kick, and LeVesseur completed three straight passes, to Ricky Schreier (Jr., Maplewood, Minn./Cretin-Derham Hall HS) and Andrew Neumann (Jr., Somerset, Wis.), setting up his second rushing TD of the game, a five-yard run to give the visitors a 16-13 advantage with 4:21 left in the half.

A long drive brought Wartburg to the doorstep of the end zone, but Augsburg's defense held firm at its own 1-yard line, holding for three plays before Spencer Herzberg (Fr., Iowa Falls, Iowa) hit a 20-yard field goal, knotting the game at 16-16 at the half.

Augsburg opened the second half with a score, capping a nine-play, 58-yard drive with a 35-yard field goal by Schlieman. But the Knights answered with a long drive of their own, a 10-play, 71-yard drive capped by a 10-yard Hoskins pass to Brandon Vinzant (Jr., Nevada, Iowa).

The Knights extended their lead to 10 points with a Ben Thomsen (Sr., Royal, Iowa) 1-yard touchdown run on the first play of the fourth quarter. But Augsburg trimmed the lead to six points on the next drive, capping a nine-play, 79-yard journey with a seven-yard pass from LeVesseur to Steve Houser (Sr., Zimmerman, Minn./Elk River HS).

Wartburg got the ball inside the Augsburg 10-yard line on its final drive, but Augsburg's Neumann blocked a 29-yard field goal attempt by Herzberg, setting the stage for the near-heroics by the Auggies.

Schreier caught 12 passes for 131 yards for the Auggies, while Neumann caught three passes for 54 yards. Garry Ashby-Phan (Sr., Minneapolis, Minn./Roosevelt HS) rushed for 21 yards and caught four passes for 17 yards.

Hoskins completed 18-of-28 passes for 269 yards and three touchdowns with one interception for the Knights, with Duchman catching nine passes for 138 yards and Vinzant catching three passes for 51 yards. Van Rees rushed 11 times for 62 yards, while Bobby Marquart rushed 12 times for 45 yards and Pete Osterberer rushed 20 times for 42 yards.

Defensively, Kroger led Augsburg with 16 tackles (12 solo), while Mike Matson (Jr., Cedar, Minn./St. Francis HS) and Chike Ochiagha (Sr., Savage, Minn./Holy Angels HS) had 10 tackles apiece. Andy Matzke (Sr., Faribault, Minn.) had an interception for the Auggies.

Kyle Goodchild (Fr.,Van Horne, Iowa) had 12 tackles for Wartburg, while Brad Bremer (Sr., Osage, Iowa) had 11 tackles (six solo) and Alex Pollock (Sr., Aplington, Iowa) had 10 tackles (three solo) and a sack. Joe Sodoma (So., Randalia, Iowa) intercepted a pass for the Knights.

Augsburg hosts North Central (Ill.) in a nonconference game at Edor Nelson Field next Saturday (9/17) at 1 p.m. Wartburg opens Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic Conference play with a home game against Simpson (Iowa) next Saturday at 1 p.m.

SERIES: This is the fourth time that Augsburg and Wartburg have faced each other in football, with Wartburg leading the series 2-1. The teams played in the 1952 and 1953 seasons, with Augsburg winning 19-13 in 1952 and Wartburg winning 14-12 in 1953. The series resumed last season, with Wartburg winning 27-24 at Augsburg's Edor Nelson Field.

LAST WEEK: Augsburg was idle in the first scheduled week of the 11-week, 10-game NCAA Division III season. Wartburg lost its season-opener last week, falling 34-7 at Millikin (Ill.).

LAST YEAR: Jordan Maus hit a 40-yard field goal as time expired to give Wartburg a 27-24 victory over Augsburg on Sept. 11, 2004 at Augsburg's Edor Nelson Field. Maus' buzzer-beater capped a wild finish to the back-and-forth contest. With the game tied at 24-24, Augsburg had a chance to win the game, when Andy Matzke picked off a pass at the Wartburg 45-yard line with 1:08 left. But Augsburg could only advance the ball to the Wartburg 36, with a key play a nine-yard sack of Auggie quarterback Tony George by Alex Pollock.

With 19 seconds left in regulation, Augsburg's Nick Schlieman attempted a career-high and school-record 53-yard field goal, but missed just short, giving the Knights one more possession from their own 37. Two long passes from Reed Hoskins to Mike Hachey -- 19 and 26 yards -- gave the Knights the ball at the Augsburg 18 with time running out.

Wartburg scrambled to attempt a game-winning 33-yard field goal, and Augsburg's Ricky Schreier blocked the attempt, seemingly ending the fourth quarter and setting up overtime. However, in the scramble to get a field goal off, Wartburg was whistled for a dead-ball, illegal-procedure penalty, stopping the clock with three seconds left and giving the Knights another opportunity to secure the win. After a time out to ice the kicker, Wartburg's Maus connected on a 40-yard field goal, his second successful try of the game, to win it.

Wartburg produced 520 yards of total offense -- 236 yards of rushing by Andy Parker with two touchdowns, and 232 yards of passing by Hoskins. Hachey caught four passes for 86 yards, with Chris Winter catching four balls for 53 yards and a touchdown, and Ben Thomsen catching five for 46.

Augsburg was paced by running back Steve Houser, who rushed 23 times for 104 yards and two touchdowns. Marcus LeVesseur rushed nine times for 34 yards. Tony George had 15 completions for 127 yards, with Yarzue Slowon catching seven passes for 64 yards. Andrew Neumann caught five passes for 49 yards and Ben Bothun caught four passes for 34 yards.

Houser had TD runs of 15 and 46 yards, with Jordan Hastings adding a 64-yard interception return for a score in the third quarter. Kyle Danner hit a 23-yard field goal for the Auggies.

Parker had TD runs of 25 and two yards, with Winter catching an 11-yard TD pass.

Matzke led the Auggie defense with two interceptions and 13 tackles (eight solo). Jim Gunderson had nine tackles, and Schreier had eight tackles. Wartburg's defense was paced by Mike Bouska, who had 11 tackles, and Pollock, who had nine tackles, including two for loss and 1.5 sacks.

AUGSBURG'S 12TH GAME AGAINST IOWA SCHOOLS: Saturday's game will be the 12th that Augsburg has played against schools from the state of Iowa in the 74-season history of Auggie football. Before last season's opener against Wartburg, the previous most recent game against an Iowa school came in the second round of the 1997 NCAA Division III national playoffs, when Simpson (Iowa) ended the Auggies' MIAC championship season with a 61-21 loss at Indianola, Iowa. Against other Iowa schools, Augsburg is 1-0 against Buena Vista, 0-2 against Central, 0-2 against Luther, 2-0 against Upper Iowa and 1-2 against Wartburg.

FOURTH STRAIGHT SEASON WITH TWO REGULAR-SEASON NONCONFERENCE GAMES: With Macalester having dropped its MIAC affiliation for football for a five-year span, Augsburg has to play two nonconference games in its 10-game regular-season schedule. After Carleton joined the MIAC in 1983 to give the conference 10 football schools, Augsburg played nine conference games from 1983 to 2001, with the exception of 1991, when a game against Gustavus was cancelled due to the infamous Halloween blizzard.

Last season, Augsburg went 0-2 in nonconference games, falling 27-24 against Wartburg (Iowa) and 31-24 at North Central (Ill.). In 2003, Augsburg was 1-1 in nonconference games, topping Jamestown (N.D.) 20-19 before falling to Wisconsin-Eau Claire 52-20. In 2002, Augsburg also went 1-1 in nonconference games, topping Dakota State (S.D.) 44-14 and losing to Wisconsin-Eau Claire (37-13).

Prior to 2002, Augsburg's last regular-season schedule with two nonconference games was 1983, when Augsburg defeated Buena Vista (Iowa) 29-24 on Sept. 3 and lost to Bemidji State 23-7 at the Metrodome on Nov. 20. That season, Augsburg went 4-7, the only year that Augsburg has had an 11-game regular season. Augsburg played three nonconference games in its MIAC championship season of 1997 (10-2), with its regular season win at Valley City State (N.D., 24-20 on Sept. 6) and two games in the NCAA Division III national playoffs (34-22 win over Concordia-Moorhead at the Fargodome on Nov. 15 and 61-21 loss at Simpson (Iowa) on Nov. 22.).

FRANK HAEGE'S COLLEGE HEAD COACHING DEBUT IS SATURDAY: Former Augsburg assistant coach and Arena Football League veteran coach Frank Haege was named in January as the 14th coach in the 74-season history of the Auggie football program, and he will make his collegiate head coaching debut in Saturday's season-opener at Wartburg.

Haege brings a 64-24 record as a professional football head coach to his new post at Augsburg. Most recently, Haege spent three seasons as head coach of the Arena Football League's Las Vegas Gladiators, posting a 25-23 record (including playoffs).

Haege served on the Augsburg staff under Jack Osberg as wide receivers coach in 1996 and offensive coordinator from 1997-98. Osberg retired from coaching at the end of the 2004 season after winning the most games in school history (62-79 record) in his 14 seasons. Osberg will remain on the Augsburg staff, assisting in the school's Alumni and Parent Relations and Development areas, to develop connections with athletic alumni and parents.

At Augsburg, Haege developed a dynamic passing offense. During the Auggies' Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference championship season of 1997, his Auggies averaged 424.3 yards of total offense per game and outscored their opponents 293-160 in the regular season, setting virtually every team and individual total offense and passing record, while advancing to the NCAA Division III national playoffs for the first time in school history.

In 1998, Haege's offense helped produce an NCAA career record for Augsburg receiver Scott Hvistendahl, who surpassed football legend Jerry Rice for the NCAA all-divisions record for career receiving yardage (4,696 yards, 1995-98), a record since broken. The 1998 Auggies averaged 394.8 yards of total offense per game.

Haege served as a coach in Arena Football for a decade, following in the footsteps of his father, Art, one of the legendary coaches in the early years of the sport with the Iowa Barnstormers. Haege was a head coach in arena leagues for five years, with four of his teams making league playoffs. He was an assistant coach for three Arena Football League franchises -- the Milwaukee Mustangs (1994), Minnesota Fighting Pike (1996) and New Jersey Red Dogs (1997-99) -- in his early coaching years.

In 2000, Haege joined the new AF2 (Arena Football 2) league, an affiliate league of Arena Football, with the Quad Cities (Iowa-Illinois) Steamwheelers. While there, with Hvistendahl as one of his receivers, the Steamwheelers set several professional football records, winning the first two AF2 championships (2000, 2001). His Steamwheelers went 37-1, including a professional-record 28-game winning streak and a record 19-0 campaign in 2000. His Steamwheelers also set a professional football record for most points in a game, with a 103-point effort in a 2000 contest.

Haege returned to the AFL in 2002, being named head coach of the New Jersey Gladiators. His first season produced another milestone, as the Gladiators set a league record for the greatest single-season team turnaround, as his squad finished 9-5 to make the league playoffs, after compiling a 2-12 mark the previous year. The Gladiators moved from New Jersey to Las Vegas in 2003.

Haege played collegiately at Wisconsin-Stout as a tight end, earning conference all-academic awards three times and leading the team in receiving his senior season. He was an honors graduate from Wisconsin-Stout, earning a bachelor's degree in marketing education in 1992. Haege earned his master's degree in physical education/coaching from Bemidji State (Minn.), where he served as a football assistant coach from 1992-95. A native of Virginia, Minn., Haege and his wife, Michele, have an infant son, Frank Jr.

SCOUTING THE AUGGIES: A new era of Augsburg College football is beginning this season, and the architect of this new era hopes that it will result in new success for the Auggies. Frank Haege was hired as the 14th head coach in the 74-season history of Augsburg football in January, replacing Jack Osberg, who retired after 14 seasons at the helm and a school-record 62 wins (62-79).

Haege's goals for his Auggies are simple: Become a force to be reckoned with in the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.

"Our vision is to become a consistent contender in the conference," Haege said. "We're looking forward to building the program. This season, we want to come out of the gate and win some games, which would be a great stepping stone and a great recruiting tool. It's a 'building' thing. We will spend a lot of time in the weight room to build us up, we want to get alumni involved to build great relationships, and we want to build on our traditions."

Last season, Augsburg finished 2-8 overall, 2-6 in the MIAC. Putting the 2-8 record in perspective, however, Augsburg lost four of its eight games by a touchdown or less, with two losses decided on the final play and two others decided in the last two minutes of regulation.

Seventeen starters and 36 letterwinners return from last season, and will be the cornerstone of an Auggie program which will undergo significant changes on both offense and defense.

"We have a solid group of seniors and letterwinners returning," said Haege, who welcomes 18 seniors this season. "We should have some solid senior leadership, and the opportunity for everyone to compete. It's nice to have a big group of seniors in our first year back in the program."

SCOUTING THE KNIGHTS: A short field on three first-half scoring drives guided Millikin University to a 21-0 halftime lead en route to a 34-7 win over Wartburg on Saturday in Decatur, Ill. The Knights averted a shutout behind a long kickoff return by senior fullback Ben Thomsen early in the fourth quarter. Wartburg took advantage of field position near the 50 and scored on a five-play, 51-yard drive off a seven-yard run by senior running back Pete Osterberger. Wartburg started the season ranked No. 24 in the preseason D3football.com national rankings, but has dropped out of the ranking after the season-opening loss. Wartburg's weekly preview is online: http://www.go-knights.net/news/Article.aspx?ID=659.

(Below is information from Wartburg's online season preview (http://www.go-knights.net/news/Article.aspx?ID=596):

Wartburg's gridiron Class of 2005 has the opportunity to make history. Since the inception of football in 1935, no class of football players has ever won four consecutive conference championships. With Iowa Conference championships and NCAA playoff appearances in 2002, 2003, and 2004 that could all change this season.

Rick Willis heads into his ninth campaign at the helm of the Knights, ranking third in winning percentage among active NCAA Division III head coaches.

“Our seniors are very aware of the unique opportunity that they have in front of them,” Willis stated. “The prospect of us winning the Iowa Conference championship for the fourth consecutive time is a testament to both this senior class and many former players.

“We feel like our team returns some valuable experience and key leaders,” he added. “However, we'll need to address several losses to graduation. It will be important for some players that lack game experience to step in and be productive.”

Willis pointed to staying healthy and developing depth as two items of emphasis heading in to camp.

“Like all teams in college football, it will be important to stay healthy as we go through camp in August. We will also need to develop depth in some positions,” Willis said.

“It is important that our team understands the tremendous challenge that our schedule presents, while staying focused on accomplishing something special,” Willis stated.
