QUOTES FROM AUGSBURG HEAD COACH MIKE NAVARRE
• "It took us too long to play our style today. That being said, we eventually did well to apply pressure collectively and we circulated the ball better as the game progressed. Ashley's individual effort on her second goal was outstanding and ultimately gave us the margin we needed to get the victory."
• "Eau Claire is an athletic team, which will cause us problems in our next game Wednesday. However, it will be good for us because we need to improve our ability to handle pressure."

UP NEXT
• Augsburg hosts Wisconsin-Eau Claire in a nonconference game on Wednesday (9/27) at 7:30 p.m. at Edor Nelson Field.
• Saint Mary's hosts Bethel on Wednesday at 7 p.m.
