Vikings travel to Northwestern for final dual before break
12/8/04
THIS WEEK: The No. 2 Augustana College wrestling team will take to the mate for the final time before the holiday break on Thursday, December 9. The Vikings travel to Orange City, Iowa, to take on Northwestern College in a 7 p.m. dual.
The Vikings will have almost a month off before returning to competition. On January 8, Augie opens North Central Conference action with a dual against St. Cloud State. It will be the Vikings' first home dual of the year. Then on January 11, Augustana will entertain Division III power Augsburg in a dual.
LAST WEEK: Augustana took part in the Cliff Keen Invitational in Las Vegas last weekend. Most of the 48 teams in the field were Division I schools, but the Vikings held their own, finishing in the top half of the standings.
Individually, Tom Meester reached the semifinals with an undefeated record, but sustained a minor injury in that match. He ended up losing that match and then was forced to default the fifth-place match.
