• With her two goals, Fuechtmann reached the 50-point plateau for her career. She now has 30 goals and 20 assists in 84 career games. She is now tied for 10th place in school history in career points and eighth in school history in career goals.
• Fourteen different Auggies have recorded goals or assists this season, led by Johnson's five goals and three assists for eight points. Ten different Auggies have four or more points on the year.
• After allowing just six goals in its first 12 games of the season (11-0-1), Stevenson has allowed 15 goals in its last two games -- an 8-1 loss at No. 4-ranked Adrian (Mich.) on Wednesday and Saturday's loss to the Auggies.
