The #2 team in the entire country in DII college basketball continues to roll after another good weekend in which they got two more wins.

Augustana University is 11-1, 8-0 in the NSIC after a win on Saturday against the University of Sioux Falls and on Sunday against Southwest Minnesota State University.

Against their cross town rival, Augustana was able to get a career high from Adam Beyer who put in 24 points in that win over USF 88-61.

On Sunday, it was another rout as the Vikings defeated SMSU 99-75 and were led by Casey Schilling who scored 23 points and added 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals.

Augustana has now won 11 straight games and registered its eighth game scoring 90-plus points this season.
