Augustana University Athletics

#15 Riley Nordgaard (G, 5-10, Fr. Canby, Minn./ Canby H.S.) started her collegiate career in spectacular fashion by scoring 15 points and pulling down eight rebounds in Augustana's 95-56 season opener.  The freshman guard was 5-9 from the field with a three-pointer and 4-4 from the free throw line for a game-high 15 points in just 14 minutes of action.  Of Nordgaard's eight rebounds, five were offensive.  Nordgaard's smooth shooting helped the Vikings to a 50.7% shooting on the night and 93.8% from the free throw line, missing just one shot (15-16).
