CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (1/13/07) -- The Augsburg College wrestling team advanced to the semifinals of the National Wrestling Coaches Association/Cliff Keen Division III National Duals on Saturday, winning 19 of 20 individual matches in claiming two dual-meet victories at the University of Northern Iowa's UNI-Dome.

Augsburg, the top-ranked team in the NCAA Division III national rankings, won all 10 matches in a 50-0 victory over Simpson College (Iowa) in the opening match, then won nine of 10 matches in a 35-3 quarterfinal triumph over No. 17-ranked Cornell College (Iowa).

Augsburg will face No. 6-ranked Johnson and Wales (R.I.) on Sunday (1/14) at 11 a.m. in the semifinals. In its action on Saturday, Johnson and Wales topped No. 20 Buena Vista (Iowa) 24-19, then beat No. 28 Olivet (Mich.) 29-10 in the quarterfinals.

In the other half of the Division III bracket, No. 2-ranked and defending national champion Wartburg (Iowa) also claimed a shutout in its opening dual, a 51-0 win over Ohio Northern, then topped No. 9-ranked Coe (Iowa) 21-12 in its quarterfinal match. The Knights will face No. 8 Delaware Valley (Pa.) in the other semifinal on Sunday at 11 a.m. Delaware Valley opened its tournament with a 26-18 win over No. 21-ranked North Central (Ill.), then upset No. 4 Luther (Iowa) 19-17 in the quarterfinals.
