HOW IT HAPPENED
• The Auggies scored the first two goals of the game, but Saint Mary's tied the game with a goal midway through the second period and another early in the third.

Tenley Stewart (FY, Esko, Minn./Esko HS) had the second assist on the goal.
• Katie Flynn (SR, Woodbury, Minn./East Ridge HS) opened the scoring for the Auggies with a power-play goal 4:47 into the game, connecting on a one-timer off a feed from the point by Payton Allen (SR, St. Michael, Minn./St. Michael-Albertville HS), with Kennedy Stein (JR, Lake Forest, Ill./Lake Forest HS) receiving the second assist.
• Jenna Gerold (SR, Farmington, Minn./Farmington HS) scored her first goal of the season at the 6:00 mark of the second period, deflecting home a wrist shot by Emily Cronkhite (SO, Eagan, Minn./Eagan HS), following a pass from Allen.
• Making her first collegiate start in goal, Marissa Paaske (FY, Crystal Lake, Ill./Crystal Lake Central HS) was impressive, stopping 27 of the 29 shots she faced to pick up the victory. Augsburg outshot Saint Mary's by a 52-29 margin in the contest.
