Slippery conditions no problem for Viking Women

This past weekend, the Augustana Vikings men's and women's soccer teams travelled to ice cold Fort McMurray for a double header match up against the Keyano Huskies. On Saturday night on the frozen turf, the women braved the cold and cruised to a 3 – 0 victory on first half goals by Angela Tan and Lauren Feth and a second half goal by Lauren Lutz. When the men kicked off shortly after 6pm, the temperature gauges were reading -3 with a wind chill of -7.

On Sunday, the weather took a turn for the worse. During the women's 1 – 1 tie, both teams faced difficult conditions with heavy freezing rain, high winds, and a still frozen turf. The slippery conditions were less than ideal but the woman competed hard and escaped with a well-earned point.
