After scoring big wins at home in the opening round of the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference Basketball Tournament, the Augustana men and women find themselves on the road in Saturday's quarterfinals.

Minnesota State-Moorhead used a 13-3 run midway through the second half to defeat Sioux Falls 62-50 in the first round of the NSIC basketball tournament Wednesday in Moorhead.

The Augustana softball team dropped eight spots to No. 16 in the first edition of the regular season National Fastpitch Coaches Association Top 25 poll.

Augustana split a double header with Hawaii Pacific on Sunday. The Vikings took game one 24-19 in 11 innings, but fell 22-1 in the nightcap.

Augustana seniors Alex Feeney and Cameron McCaffrey have been named to the Capital One Academic All-District 7 first team by the College Sports Information Directors of America.

Augustana began a busy week of NSIC play with a loss at Wayne.

The Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference announced Tuesday that the league will move the NSIC men’s and women’s basketball tournaments to the Pentagon by Sanford Health in Sioux Falls beginning in 2014.

Augustana College has a fantastic women’s basketball team and it seems that many people agree even outside of Sioux Falls.

The Augustana men's and women's indoor track and field teams have been picked to finish second in the NSIC. Conference coaches have tabbed the University of Sioux Falls men for fourth and the Cougar women to finish fifth.

The University of Sioux Falls jumped on Winona State early and were able to hold off the Warriors' comeback to notch their second NSIC road victory of the season Saturday, 25-23, 25-18, 21-25, 12-25, 15-11.
