KENOSHA, Wis. — Augustana went on a 15-2 run late in the second half as the Vikings ended Carthage's 14-game CCIW winning streak, 69-55 before 1,850 at the Carthage Physical Education Center.

The No. 9-ranked Redmen (9-4, 1-1 CCIW) jumped out to a 27-7 lead in the first 12 minutes of the game before Augustana went on a 27-6 run to take a 34-33 lead with 47 seconds to play in the first half. Carthage's Antoine McDaniel hit a jumper to give the Redmen a 35-34 halftime edge.

The lead changed hands a couple of times early in the second half, and Carthage's last lead was 42-41 at 15:09. The game was tied at 49-49 before the Vikings (11-3, 3-1) took the lead for good, 51-49, at 7:05.

Augustana extended the lead to 13 points, 64-51, at 2:25 when things got slightly out of hand. A technical foul on the Vikings' Adam Rue triggered a shoving incident between Carthage coach Bosko Djurickovic and Augustana coach Grey Giovanine. Both benches emptied, and both coaches were cited with technical fouls, as was McDaniel.
