Auggies edged in third period by Oles

NORTHFIELD, Minn. -- Austin Dollimer (SR, Rosemount, Minn./Rosemount HS) scored a pair of goals, including a power-play goal to put Augsburg University in front midway through the third period, but host St. Olaf College responded with a pair of goals to take a 4-3 Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference decision on Saturday afternoon.

THE BASICS
FINAL SCORE: St. Olaf 4, Augsburg 3
LOCATION: St. Olaf Ice Arena, Northfield, Minn.
RECORDS: Augsburg 6-2-1 overall (3-1-0 MIAC), St. Olaf 8-2-1 overall (4-2-0 MIAC)

HOW IT HAPPENED
• Dollimer claimed his third career multi-goal game, scoring an even-strength goal in the first period from Logan Kons (JR, Niles, Ill./Niles West HS) and Fritz Belisle (SR, Red Wing, Minn./Red Wing HS), and scoring the go-ahead goal on the power play at the 9:23 mark of the third period, assisted by Belisle and Michael Ferrandino (SO, Lisle, Ill./Waterloo West (Iowa) HS).
• But St. Olaf tied the game 15 seconds after Dollimer's goal and took the lead with 5:09 left in the game, with both goals coming from the Oles' Jonathan Young, as the Oles scored the split with Augsburg, the No. 2-ranked team in the latest USCHO.com Division III national poll. St. Olaf received votes in the national poll, released last Monday.
• Grant Reichenbacher (SR, Verona, Wis./Madison Edgewood HS) gave the Auggies a 2-0 lead 47 seconds into the second period, scoring from Belisle and Mason Palmer (SR, Plymouth, Minn./Shattuck-St. Mary's). Belisle tied a career-best with his three-assist game.
• Augsburg outshot St. Olaf by a 35-27 margin in the game, including a 13-4 margin in the first period. Goalie Jack Robbel (SR, Bloomington, Minn./Shattuck-St. Mary's HS) returned to the lineup after suffering an injury during the season-opening contest on Nov. 3, and collected 23 saves in a losing effort.

FOR THE FOES
• Troy Bowditch and Connor Kalthoff scored goals for St. Olaf in Saturday's contest.
• Ole goalie Lukas Haugen had 32 saves.

UP NEXT
• Augsburg faces No. 5-ranked St. Norbert (Wis.) in a nonconference weekend series next Friday and Saturday (12/9-10) in Ashwaubenon, Wis.
