Augustana Hockey Shutout Win With 3-3Rd Period Goals

Augustana netminder Zach Rose turned away 31 shots in his second-consecutive shutout of the season as the Vikings (12-17-3) earned a split Saturday against Alaska Anchorage in the 3-0 victory.

The Vikings went on an early power play opportunity and peppered Jared Whale with shots. Whale shut the door on Augustana's early period special team opportunity and helped push the Seawolves momentum in their favor.

In the final 10 minutes of play in the first period, UAA answered back with shots of its own but Zack Rose stood tall.
