our success today in the future."
Nine different AU players scored goals, including the first career hat trick for junior Tammy Waine. Waine scored two of

Freshman Kellie Evans led Auburn with three assists and one goal. Niki Schier and Erika Schansberg added two assists and a
goal each. Also scoring goals for Auburn was Sarah Stroud, Carly Thomas, Kacy Murray, Lindsay Hawkins and Adrienne Prosch.
Three AU goalies shared time in the net. Freshman Joell Giger got the start and did not see a shot. Fellow freshman Leslie
Schoeplein also did not see a shot, while sophomore Teresa Campioli collected one save in the second half.
