MINNEAPOLIS (9/22/05) -- Jacob Helling (Sr., Brookings, S.D.) scored in the 59th minute for Hamline University, and Andrew Connor (So., Becket, Mass./North Muskegon (Mich.) HS) tied the game in the 84th minute for Augsburg College, as the teams played to a 1-1 tie in two overtimes in a Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference men's soccer game Thursday night at Augsburg's Edor Nelson Field.

After a scoreless first half, Helling put the Pipers on the board first, making a move around a defender in the box off a left-side feed by Steven Dupic (Sr., Sioux Falls, S.D./Washington HS) and putting the ball past Augsburg goalkeeper Pascaul Venter (Fr., Rochester, Minn./John Marshall HS).

But Augsburg tied the game late in regulation time on a scramble in front of the Piper net. Ryley Teske (Fr., Minneapolis, Minn./Bloomington Lutheran HS) flicked the ball past Hamline goalkeeper Andrew Clement (So., Victoria, Minn./Minnetonka HS), and Connor was able to deposit the loose ball into the open net.
