MOORHEAD, Minn. – The Dragons soccer team opened up their road schedule with a neutral site contest against the Vikings of Augustana (S.D.) in nonconference action. The Vikings jumped ahead early and fought off a Dragon rally to hold on to a 2-1 win in St. Cloud.

The Vikings jumped ahead at the 19:58 mark of the first half on a goal by Katie Bowman, her first of the season. A minute and a half later the Vikings answered again on a Katie Shandri penalty kick goal at the 21:26 mark to quickly put the Vikings up 2-0.

Senior goalkeeper faced a barrage of shots in the first half, tallying six saves in the half. The Dragons managed four shots on goal but were turned away by Vikings goalkeeper Amanda Wagner who finished with six saves in the game.
