History <\/a><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n The University of Minnesota Duluth soccer team opened the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference Tournament Quarterfinals with its first postseason win since 2014, a 2-0 shutout of Augustana University in James S. Malosky Stadium in Duluth, Minn.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n The Bulldogs, whose last postseason win also came against the Vikings in the Quarterfinals Nov. 5, 2014, a 1-0 upset in Sioux Falls, S.D., struck in the 24th minute and never looked back.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Junior Gwendolyn Lilly<\/a> finished in a cross from Nora Helvig<\/a> at 23:17 to take the 1-0 lead, giving UMD an early advantage despite an even 5-5 shot count and a 6-1 foul count that favored AU.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Helvig headed one in of her own in the 53rd minute off a corner form Mariss VanDeHei to extend the Bulldogs lead to 2-0, and it would be all the offense UMD would need to secure the win.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Goaltender Ey Halverson \u2013 named the NSIC Goaltender of the Week just hours before the game kicked off \u2013 recorded five saves for UMD, who outshot the Vikings 14-10 and had eight corner kicks to AU’s six.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n UMD (11-5-2) will play Bemidji State University in Mankato, Minn. Friday in the first game of the quarterfinals. Kick-off is scheduled for 10:00 a.m.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n BULLDOG NOTES: Monday night was UMD’s first win at home against Augustana since Oct. 6, 2013, a 3-2 overtime triumph \u2026 the Bulldogs will be looking for their first NSIC semifinal win since the 2013 season \u2026 UMD has not given up a goal over its past four games \u2026 the Bulldogs have played a little over 397 minutes without allowing a goal over their current shutout streak \u2026 Nora Helvig<\/a> is now tied for the team points lead with 18 points on seven goals and four assists, and had her second multiple point game of the season Monday night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
