QUOTE FROM AUGSBURG HEAD COACH MIKE NAVARRE
• "The team definitely put forth the effort required to get a result against one of the best teams in the nation tonight. Unfortunately, we came up just short. Credit Wartburg for finding a way to take it on a set piece in the 90th minute. This one stings, but we can build on this performance. We are in a race to try and catch our potential -- we aren't there yet, of course -- but we seem willing to run."

UP NEXT
• Augsburg returns to Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference play on Saturday (9/24) at 1 p.m., with a game at St. Scholastica.
