Vyletelka's shutout sparks Auggie sweep

MINNEAPOLIS -- Behind goalie Samuel Vyletelka's (SO, Zilina, Slovakia/Grammar School of St. Francis of Assisi) school-record seventh career shutout, the Augsburg University men's hockey team completed a Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference series sweep of Concordia College-Moorhead with a 1-0 triumph on Saturday afternoon.

THE BASICS
FINAL SCORE:
 Augsburg 1, Concordia-Moorhead 0
LOCATION: Ed Saugestad Rink, Minneapolis
RECORDS: Augsburg 12-8-1 overall (8-4-0 MIAC), Concordia 9-11-1 overall (6-6-0 MIAC)

HOW IT HAPPENED
• Vyletelka stopped all 34 shots he faced in goal -- his fifth game this season with 30-plus saves -- to claim his second shutout win of the season and seventh of his college career, breaking the old school record of six career shutouts, held by four players. He improved to 9-4-1 on the year with the victory.
• Jarod Blackowiak (SR, Eden Prairie, Minn./Eden Prairie HS) scored the lone goal of the game at the 12:41 mark of the second period, driving straight ahead after his faceoff win in the Concordia zone and firing a shot for his seventh goal of the season and his fourth goal in his last three games. 
• Augsburg was outshot by a 34-24 margin, snapping a seven-game streak of outshooting its opponents. It's just the fourth time this season that Augsburg has been outshot by an opponent.
Dylan Schneider (SO, Rochester, Minn./Shattuck-St. Mary's HS) had five shots on-goal for the Auggies, while Blackowiak had three shots.

FOR THE FOES
• Matt Fitzgerald had 23 saves in goal for Concordia.

UP NEXT
• Augsburg returns to MIAC play next weekend with a series against Hamline.
