• Jack Baumgart (JR, Willmar, Minn./Willmar HS) and Noah Thomas (SO, Woodbury, Minn./East Ridge HS) picked up the other two Auggie hits. 
• Three Auggie pitchers worked in the game and each gave up two runs. Connor Stoik (SO, Eau Claire, Wis./Eau Claire Memorial HS) got the start and suffered the loss, striking out two in two innings pitched. Cam Fischer (FY, Becker, Minn./Becker HS) threw 4.2 innings and struck out two batters against one walk. Matt Moe (JR, St. Cloud, Minn./Becker HS) finished the game for Augsburg, throwing 1.1 innings and striking out one batter. 

FOR THE FOES
