The Seawolves hockey team tied the Augustana Vikings 2-2 on Dec. 12. The Seawolves denied every attempt the Vikings made for a goal in the first period but gave up a goal in the second period, followed 20 seconds later by a second goal. The Seawolves managed to rally back with goals from Ryan Johnson and Max Helgeson a few minutes later. From then on, the Seawolves were able to hold off Augustana but could not get an opening for a winning point. Overall, Seawolves goalie Greg Orosz blocked 19 of the 21 attempts made by the Vikings. The Seawolves are currently 4-11-3 for the season.
