HOW IT HAPPENED
• No. 6-seed Augsburg avenged a 2-1 overtime loss to the Gusties on Oct. 8, claiming the victory in Tuesday's win over the No. 3-seed Gusties.
• With the victory, Augsburg advances to play top-seed St. Thomas on Wednesday (11/2) at 11:30 a.m. in St. Paul, Minn. The Auggies earned their trip to the MIAC playoffs with a 2-0 win at St. Thomas last Saturday, giving the Tommies their first loss of the season.
• Augsburg scored two goals in a 2:20 span early in the game to take a lead it would not relinquish. Aidan Sim-Campos (SO, St. Joseph, Minn./St. Cloud HS) opened the scoring for the Auggies with a goal from Barinedum Kordah (SR, Brooklyn Park, Minn./Park Center HS) at the 13:09 mark. Kordah placed a pass into the center of the box, and Sim-Campos shot it into the left-side netting for his third goal of the season.
• Bobby Kohl (JR, Shorewood, Wis.) followed at the 15:29 mark with his fifth goal of the season, an unassisted tally. He intercepted a Gustavus pass and scored on the breakaway.
• Clark Page (SO, Delafield, Wis./Kettle Moraine HS) improved to 4-3-1 on the season with the win in goal, recording four saves. 
• Augsburg outshot Gustavus by a 13-10 margin in the game, with both teams recording four corner kicks. Kohl had five shots for the Auggies, while Ben Henry (SR, Manitowoc, Wis./Lincoln HS) had three shots. Lionel Vang (FY, Little Canada, Minn./Roseville HS) and Peyton Boich (FY, Cottage Grove, Minn./Park HS) had two shots each.

• Augsburg is making its fifth appearance in the MIAC postseason playoffs under Head Coach Greg Holker, and its first appearance since the 2011 season.

• Murakami, John Anderson and Davis Petros had two shots each for the Gusties.
• Matt Bateman had six saves in goal for Gustavus.

QUOTES FROM AUGSBURG HEAD COACH GREG HOLKER
• "We weren't our best today, but we did enough to grab the road playoff win and move on. We jumped on them right away when Barinedum stole a ball and went deep to the end line before crossing to Aidan, who made no mistake about it. Just a few minutes later, Bobby put their back under pressure and he gave it up, giving Bob a breakaway that he calmly buried. At that point it looked like it could get lopsided, but Gustavus then scored on a corner kick. Their only real chances came from set pieces, but they were always a threat with really good service."
• "We weren't as sharp in possession -- we still had more of the ball like we normally do, just not as much as usual. Their pressure affected that, certainly. The playing surface did as well since we are used to turf."
• "Now we have the trickiest turnaround in the league, with an 11:30 a.m. start at St. Thomas. Certainly they will remember that we just beat them four days ago to end their undefeated campaign. With short recovery time and a formidable opponent, we know it's a tough test."
