MINNEAPOLIS (1/12/00) -- Jason Beckendorf (Sr., Lakeville,
Minn.) scored 26 points and pulled down five rebounds Wednesday
to lead the Augsburg College men's basketball team to an 84-80
upset win over St. John's University in a battle of Minnesota
Intercollegiate Athletic Conference leaders at Augsburg's Si Melby
Hall.
With the win, Augsburg improves to 7-3 overall and 6-1 in the
MIAC. St. John's, which entered the game rated 14th in the nation
in the latest D3 Hoops.com (www.d3hoops.com)
national rankings, lost its first game of the year and fell to
10-1 overall and 6-1 in the MIAC. The loss for the Johnnies breaks
a school-record 10-game winning streak to start the season.
Beckendorf had 14 points in the first half, and ended up hitting
11-of-15 from the field to pace a torrid shooting night for the
Auggies. As a team, Augsburg hit 58.9 percent of its field goals
(33-of-56) in the game.
Jeoffrey Reed (Sr., Minneapolis, Minn./De La Salle HS)
scored 15 points -- 13 in the second half -- including a clutch
three-pointer with 46 seconds remaining to push Augsburg ahead
81-76. He also hit three free throws in the final 11 seconds of
play and had a clutch steal. Reed ended up with three assists,
three blocked shots and three steals.
Nate Hoerr (Jr., Burnsville, Minn.) had 10 points and
five rebounds and Kyle Crubel (Sr., Bloomington, Wis.)
had nine points and five rebounds.
Augsburg's Kevin Van Rossum (Sr., Green Bay, Wis./Preble
HS) scored just three points, but hit a three-pointer in the second
half to tie Augsburg's school record for career three-pointers.
He now has 185 in his career, tying him with Scott Syring
(1989-93) for the school's three-point scoring record.
Augsburg built an 11-point lead five times in the first half
before a second-half St. John's rally. But the Johnnies could
not cut the Augsburg lead closer than two points in the second
half -- at 78-76 with 1:14 remaining.
Mike Nester (So., Redwood Falls, Minn.) paced the Johnnies
with 21 points, hitting 7-of-8 from the field and a perfect 6-of-6
from the free-throw line. He also had three steals.
Troy Bigalke (Jr., Monticello, Minn.) scored 19 points,
adding three assists, three steals and six rebounds for the Johnnies
before fouling out late in the game. Sam Bugbee (Jr., St.
Cloud, Minn./Tech HS) had 16 points, three assists and five rebounds.
Augsburg plays at St. Olaf on Saturday, while St. John's hosts
Bethel. Both games are at 3 p.m.
