The NEW Official Thread of the Augustana Vikings

Shoulder injury. I believe he'll be ready for next season.

Good to hear -- not the injury part but that he'll be back next year. Augie will need all the size it can get.

Does anyone know what happened to Conner Kraft? He disappeared the last half of the season.

Can anybody answer this question. Why do NSIC travel south for pre-conference games every year? We should host tournaments and games. Boycott MIAA-GAC.

Money and resources.

In early to mid November D2 schools already have to commit resources to run volleyball and football events as the post season approaches. Some NSIC schools also have D1 hockey games underway. Early season basketball isn't a priority for some/most schools and therefore events like the ones in St Joseph are an efficient way to get non-conference D2 games. It's not ideal that most NSIC teams have to travel but we wouldn't be complaining about this so much if the top NSIC teams had just played better than they did this season.

Hartigan sounded very uncertain as to Hinker's future after the game tonight. I think it's realistic that we could lose our entire starting five.

Sam, Tanner, and Helgren are out of eligibility.

Tam has played his way to at least a mid-major D1 opportunity with a 6 figure pay day. I have enjoyed watching him play immensely and can't wait to see where he goes and who he puts in the blender next.

Hinker could get D1 offers with some NIL money if he decides to enter the portal for his last year of eligibility, but I have a non-zero level of hope he could be back next season.

Vikings could regress next season, Certainly, Tam has had scouts eyes upon him.

I resigned myself a while ago to losing Ferguson to the portal after this season. As for Hinker, does anyone know if has eligibility left? (Who doesn't these days.) If so, I could see him attracting attention from Summit League teams.

Very disappointing way to end the season with their worst performance of the year. Meanwhile the Duluth bigs were banking in 3 pointers. It will leave kind of a sour taste but overall if was a very entertaining year.

JJ Hartigan says he will be back for the 26/27 season.

Amazing performance by Sam Rensch after two pretty quiet games in a row. The two Sams from Lincoln coming next year got to witness it too.

Was a great night to be a Viking! The toolman,"Sam Rensch" opened up his entire toolbox on the Coo. Tam and Hink were fantastic as well. My 25 years of parking my sore butt on those molded plastic bleachers, makes me think there was a lot more then 1758 in attendance. Much respect to the football team.

If USF wasn't dead last in the NSIC on defense, they'd be a contender.

Sam Rensch with the Senior Day of his dreams. He was a flame thrower in the second half hung 37 on the Coo in front of the best Elmen crowd in years. Vikings lock up the NSIC Tourney 2 seed and a Saturday night game at the 'Gon.

Has anyone heard if Caden Hinker is coming back next year? I assumed he would but see he will be honored at senior day tomorrow which now makes it seem unlikely.
