Aguie routs DSU

Posted on Tuesday, December 9, 2008

Augustana shot 60-percent from the field last night as it routed Dakota State University 103-51 in men’s basketball action. The game took place at the Elmen Center in Sioux Falls.

The Vikings built up a 42-22 first half lead and then erupted for 61 second-half points. Six players finished the night in double-figures, led by David Foster’s 15 points.

DSU managed just 32-percent shooting in the game, as Jason DeZeeuw led the Trojans with 15 points. Derek Kreutzfeldt and Sean Battinger each had five rebounds to lead the Trojans, who were out-rebounded 42-28.

The Trojans return home Saturday to take on Peru State. Last night’s game does not figure into DSU’s season standings.
