Tommies win on pitch

After playing to a 1-1 tie through overtime, St. Thomas edged host Augsburg in a shootout to win the MIAC women's soccer tournament. The Tommies went 6-for-6 in the shootout, with Paola Del Moral connecting on the deciding sixth shot.

The conference playoffs title was the second in a row for Tommies and earned them a spot in the Division III NCAA field.

Midfielder Ellie Eskierka scored 10 minutes into the game for St. Thomas. Augsburg forward Ashley St. Aubin scored the 70th goal of her career in the 79th minute of the game to tie it and become the MIAC's all-time leader in overall goals.

Augsburg's Emily Chapman and St. Thomas' Sarah Pasternak, who made a diving stop on the Auggies' sixth penalty shot in the shootout, both finished with seven saves.

Gusties finish well

Cole Schwartz's 23rd goal of the season in the 72nd minute was the winner as Gustavus beat St. Thomas 3-1 in the championship game of the MIAC men's soccer tournament at Bethany Lutheran in Mankato. It broke a 1-all tie. Matt Gibbons got the Gusties' final goal in the 89th minute.

Jacob Makela put the Tommies ahead in the 14th minute of the game; Otis Anderson tied it for Gustavus in the 41st minute.

Gustavus is now a perfect 7-0 in MIAC playoff championship games, having won before in 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2012 and 2014. No other MIAC men's soccer program has won more than three playoff titles.
