BURNSVILLE, Minn. – Augustana University continues its lead in the NSIC All-Sports Standings after point totals were calculated following the winter sports season.
 
With 11 of the 18 NSIC championships in the books, Augustana has tallied 137.333 points, ahead of No. 2 Minnesota State which has 115 points. In addition, in the men’s standings, Augustana holds the lead with 65.3 points, ahead of No. 2 Minnesota Duluth at 43.3 points. On the women’s side, AU is in second place behind Minnesota State by 1.5 points.
 
“After an incredibly strong fall, our winter sports stepped up and kept the momentum going,” Augustana director of athletics Josh Morton said. “The broad-based excellence of our department is second-to-none as our student-athletes make us proud every day in the classroom, in competition and in the community.” 
 
Augustana saw a very successful winter sports campaign as the Vikings were champions in men’s basketball, placed second in both men’s and women’s track & field, second in wrestling and third in women’s swimming & diving.

Ties in the standings at any level shall result in the totaling of points and equal distribution.
