QUOTE FROM AUGSBURG HEAD COACH MIKE NAVARRE
• "We had a lot of chances to extend our lead in the first half, but couldn't convert. Credit Bethel as they made things difficult on us in the second half and found a way to equalize. Fortunately, we responded well to Bethel's goal and were able to grab the lead back."
• "Macalester provides a great challenge for us next week. Fortunately, with just one league game next week, we have some trainings to help us improve and prepare."

UP NEXT
• Augsburg travels to face Macalester on Friday (9/26) at 7:30 p.m.
• Bethel hosts Carleton next Saturday (9/27) at 1 p.m.
