HOW IT HAPPENED

BEYOND THE BOXSCORE
• The goals were just the fourth and fifth surrendered by Augsburg this season. Augsburg has outscored its opponents by a 36-5 margin this season.
• Augsburg's five shots were its fewest in a game since recording two shots in its 3-0 NCAA tournament loss at the University of Chicago (Ill.) on Nov. 15, 2014.

FOR THE FOES
• Iryna Talkachova opened the scoring with a goal from Anna Pedersen 3:25 into the game, taking a pass off a throw-in and popping it over the keeper into the net.
• Ellen Kokes on a header in the box off a corner from Elly Leyva at the 52:08 mark.

QUOTES FROM AUGSBURG HEAD COACH MIKE NAVARRE
• "We simply did not play well today. But St. Kate;s deserves credit, too. They were hungry and solid on set pieces. The conference is too deep to play poorly on the road and expect to get a result. We will learn from it and move on."

UP NEXT
• Augsburg travels to face Gustavus on Saturday (10/10) at 3:30 p.m.
• St. Catherine travels to face St. Olaf on Saturday at 1 p.m.
