WINONA, Minn. -- Nick Zuchowski (FY, Wales, Wis./Kettle Moraine HS) scored the game-winning goal 6:52 into overtime, lifting the Augsburg University men's soccer team to a 2-1 Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference win at Saint Mary's University on Saturday afternoon.

THE BASICS
FINAL SCORE: Augsburg 2, Saint Mary's 1 (OT)
LOCATION: Ochrymowycz Field, Winona, Minn.
RECORDS: Augsburg 5-1-0 overall (2-0-0 MIAC), Saint Mary's 3-5-0 overall (0-3-0 MIAC)

HOW IT HAPPENED
• The Auggies scored the game-winning goal in dramatic fashion. Abdullah Alshayba (SR, Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia/ISG Dammam HS) took a throw-in, fought off a defender and moved to the middle, threading the ball between two Saint Mary's defenders to reach a streaking Zuchowski on his right. Zuchowski popped the ball past a diving Saint Mary's goalkeeper, and the ball glanced off the left goalpost and into the net for his team-leading fifth goal of the season.
• Augsburg opened the scoring with a goal in the 25th minute, as Lionel Vang (JR, Little Canada, Minn./Roseville HS) capped a nice possession march downfield by the Auggies. After a set of seven straight successful passes to build momentum, Vang converted on a rising shot from just outside the penalty box to the top right corner of the net. Taylor Sullivan (JR, Waukesha, Wis./Kettle Moraine HS) was credited with the assist.
• Augsburg claimed the impressive win despite being outshot by a 22-13 margin in the game, including a 10-5 Saint Mary's advantage in the second half. Four Auggie field players saw action in the full 97 minutes of the game -- defenders Daniel Hedstrom (JR, Hermantown, Minn./Hermantown HS), Hsinku Lay (SO, Maplewood, Minn./Roseville HS) and Luke Falk (SR, Waukesha, Wis./Waukesha West HS), and midfielder Kouseng Yang (SR, Hugo, Minn./White Bear Lake HS).
• Garrett Kaelin (JR, Stillwater, Minn./Hill-Murray HS) scored his second straight victory in goal with nine saves.
• Vang had four shots in the game, while Emmanuel Egbujor (SR, Brooklyn Park, Minn./Champlin Park HS) had three shots and Zuchowski had two.

FOR THE FOES
• Saint Mary's tied the game at the 87:14 mark, as Josh Balsiger scored from Charles Reit to force overtime.
• Alberto Centeno had four saves in goal for the Cardinals.
