D3FOOTBALL.COM TEAM OF THE WEEK - 10/5

MINNEAPOLIS -- Augsburg University wide receiver Dominic Smith (SO, White Bear Lake, Minn./White Bear Lake HS) was named to the D3football.com Team of the Week for his performance in Augsburg's Homecoming win over St. Olaf College, it was announced on Tuesday.

Smith tied an Augsburg single-game record with four touchdown receptions, part of a 10-catch, 136-yard effort in Augsburg's 56-28 Homecoming win over St. Olaf on Saturday. Smith caught second-quarter scores of 31 and 23 yards, a third-quarter score of 10 yards and a fourth-quarter score of 16 yards. His four touchdown receptions ties a school record set five times before -- Karl Sneider in 1966, Scott Hvistendahl in 1998, Mark Johnson in 2001, Ben Bothun in 2004 and Nick Heenie in 2018. Smith went over the 100-yard mark in receiving yardage for the third time in his four games this season.

Smith leads the MIAC in receptions (35), receiving yardage (547), receiving yards per-game (136.8) and receiving touchdowns (9). Among NCAA Division III receivers nationally, he ranks second in receiving touchdowns, third in receiving yards per-game, fourth in receptions per-game (8.8) and 10th in receiving yardage.

Smith is the 26th selection to the D3football.com Team of the Week from Augsburg since the award was established in 1999 by D3football.com, a national site that covers NCAA Division III football.

Now 2-2 on the season, Augsburg travels to face No. 6/5 Saint John's in an MIAC game this Saturday (10/9) at 1 p.m. in Collegeville, Minn.
