Augustana Update

Feb. 17, 2003

Greetings,

Since the last update, the Vikings have been to Colorado and back, hosted an international dual meet, and also hosted two NCC home dual meets. The results are as follows:

Colorado trip results:

  • Augustana 24, Colorado School of Mines 10
  • Augustana 12, UNC 32

International dual:

  • USA 16, Belarus 11 (close to 1500 fans)

Home duals:

  • Augustana 19, Minnesota State, Mankato 19 (Augustana wins on criteria 6 wins to 4)
  • Augustana 26, St. Cloud State 13

Augustana is now 11-5 in dual meets--2-2 in the NCC. We face NDSU on Wed., Feb. 19 (the match will be televised on PAX TV), and we wrestle SDSU on Thurs., Feb. 20. Both of these home matches start at 7:00 PM. Both matches have the potential to be very exciting, and we are hoping for big crowds at both matches. The latest rankings show AC #6, NDSU #2, SDSU #8. The NCC tournament is in Fargo on Mar. 2nd, and the Augie line-up will be:

125 Aaron Graumann (SO) 27-7
133 Andre VanderVelde (FR) 18-15
141 Ryan King (FR) 21-9
149 Austin Scarset (FR) 23-11
157 Matt McDougall (FR) 11-8
or Ben Caven-Johnson (RFR) 8-13
165 Dustin Wilking (RFR) 15-8
174 Tom Meester (SO) 30-6
184 Sam Kenton (SR) 24-8
197 Jeremy Murphy (SR) 2-10
285 Cris Bietz (SO) 25-11

Thanks for your support, and enjoy the exciting wrestling soon to come in the late season tournaments.

Sincerely,

Kraig Presler
