ABERDEEN, S.D.
- Mackenzie Trom's goal at 102:30 in overtime lifted Augustana to a 2-1 victory over Northern State Saturday afternoon. The game marked the first Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference contest for the two teams.

Augustana has now won three-straight games and improves to 3-2 (1-0 NSIC). NSU drops to 3-3 (0-1 NSIC).

Trom contines to lead the team with three goals on the season.
