few in the Ed Saugestad Rink were thinking they were about to witness history
with the winner earning a trip to the MIAC championship game this Saturday
the two teams had done more than play an instant classic; they had etched their names into the record books
which was the longest Division III women’s hockey game of all time
Augsburg eventually emerged victorious in a game that ended up extending into four overtimes
When first-year forward Aunna Schulte scored her unassisted winner
Mary’s had played 128:06 of game time
Schulte ultimately won the game for the Eagles
but the game almost never even made it to overtime
Mary’s Sabres and Augsburg Eagles always play in close games
They played a pair of games towards the end of February that saw the Eagles earn a series sweep with scores of 3-1 and 3-2
The MIAC semifinal was always destined to be close
The Sabres were on the brink of reversing their fortunes with a 2-1 lead over Augsburg

The Eagles tied the game at 3:57 of the third period on a goal from Nora Stepan
which ultimately sent the game to overtime

both team’s goaltenders played a starring role
Mary’s goalie Celeste Rimstad made 35 combined saves in the overtime periods
When Schulte scored the game-winner in the fourth overtime

which are being driven forward at Audi dealerships
play an important role – including in the Augsburg area.missing translation: fa.article-intro.reading-time – 04/16/2025
Michael Agsteiner is the managing director of several car dealerships with around 450 employees in the region
personally interviewed him in Augsburg about his concerns about environmental
I am impressed by a large new building in the middle of a vibrant and commercially strong district
The new Audi Center Augsburg has just been built here on an area of almost 12,600 square meters
an environmentally conscious “point of experience.” I would like to get to know the building contractor behind the concept
Managing director Audi dealership Augsburg
“Sustainability is not just a word for us,” says the traditional company for new vehicles
used cars as well as workshop and service performance on the world wide web
This applies to the Green Building{ft_green-building} as well as to investments in the corporate culture
eager to learn the details – in anticipation of a stimulating conversation with the managing director Michael Agsteiner
Did you have a good journey?” the Swabian entrepreneur
Audi partner and builder asks me as we shake hands in good spirits
I nod and show how impressed I am by the new building
the conversion of our car dealerships into buildings that are as environmentally friendly as possible is taking shape
We are very pleased about that,” says Agsteiner
Resource and energy-efficient measures are naturally included in the construction processes
in addition to trends: \"The automotive sector is undergoing a transformation process towards more and more corporate responsibility
this should also be reflected in our car dealerships,\" he continues
it is important to us in the long term to act in an environmentally conscious manner.”
“Sustainability is not just a word for us,” says the traditional company for new vehicles, used cars as well as workshop and service performance on the world wide web, thereby arousing curiosity. This applies to the Green Building as well as to investments in the corporate culture
in addition to trends: "The automotive sector is undergoing a transformation process towards more and more corporate responsibility
this should also be reflected in our car dealerships," he continues
this means that the new building was built according to the criteria of the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB){ft_dgnb} and is also to be certified with the “Quality Seal for Sustainable Buildings” (QNG)
the DGNB considers the entire life cycle of the building
from planning and execution to use and disposal
as well as socio-cultural and economic aspects with regard to sustainability
The building materials used are also examined
In reality, this means that the new building was built according to the criteria of the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB) and is also to be certified with the “Quality Seal for Sustainable Buildings” (QNG)
Other examples of sustainability aspects at the new Audi Center are:
There is no classic sustainability officer
“We are all sustainability managers together,” explains Agsteiner
“We are working intensively to be agile in the overall systemic understanding of sustainability and to take into account many facets and aspects in all business areas.” This includes a wide variety of measures
such as optimizing internal resources with digital tools
or even water dispensers for employees and reusable glass bottles
An efficient alternative mobility concept for customers is also part of environmentally conscious daily business
There are also environmental and social initiatives: “For example
we are involved in a large reforestation project of FC Augsburg{ft_fca-wald-fc-augsburg},” says the managing director
An efficient alternative mobility concept for customers is also part of environmentally conscious daily business. This includes, among other things, electric cars, e-scooters and e-bikes, which will be provided. There are also environmental and social initiatives: “For example, we are involved in a large reforestation project of FC Augsburg,” says the managing director.
The employees at the Audi Zentrum Augsburg are on board as sustainability officers.
I note: Economic performance and sustainable action are not mutually exclusive here, but are always considered together. “In general, we should never stop working passionately for sustainable issues,” says Agsteiner at our farewell.
I have come to know him as a person of vision, courage and creativity for long-term investments in the future, and these insights will remain in my memory.
In the Augsburg region, Michael Agsteiner is driving sustainability at Audi dealerships – including green roofs, water treatment and ergonomic workplaces. In an interview with Heiko Schmidt, he discusses responsibility.
As part of Design for Circularity, Audi promotes the circular economy in the early phases of product development. According to the Rethink principle, components in the concept phase are already designed with their recyclability in mind.
Audi brand ambassador Felix Neureuther and Rüdiger Recknagel, Head of Environmental Protection Audi Group, talk about sustainable pioneer vehicles, the appeal of electric cars and the future of sustainable production at Audi museum mobile.

Augsburg or Wartburg has won every D3 NCAA championship since 1995
One of these teams will break the tie unless another team ends the streak.
The rivalry is so fierce that it was featured on the front page of “The New York Times” sports page on March 5, 2012, in a story called Locked in a Struggle for Supremacy. It received top billing over Tiger Woods and the NBA.
These two dynasties will settle the score this week — for now.
Wartburg has also scheduled a watch party for the documentary “The Battle of the Burgs” before the dual
showing on January 30 in the W East Classroom and attend the dual immediately following
The 50-minute documentary highlights the annual dual between Wartburg and Augsburg and the team race that unfolded at the 2024 NCAA Championships. Click here for more information.
In the finals of the 2025 NWCA National Duals held on January 11
Below is the box score and links to each match
The marquee match on Thursday is at 197 pounds
where #2 Tyler Venz (Augsburg) faces #1 Massoma Endene (Wartburg).
Here are a few things you should know about this iconic rivalry.
The belt is named after Augsburg’s Jeff Swenson and Wartburg’s Jim Miller. Both coaches led their teams to 10 national titles during their head coaching careers.
Augsburg (15 titles): 1991, 1993, 1995, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2005, 2007, 2010, 2015, 2019, 2023, 2024
Wartburg (15 titles): 1996, 1999, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2022

1993: Augsburg 93, Wartburg 92Wartburg was in the title hunt during Jim Miller’s second season as head coach but Augsburg earned a one-point win. The Knights built what appeared to be an insurmountable lead but lost the title to the Auggies down the homestretch. The loss still drives Miller crazy even though he has 10 NCAA team championships.
1999: Wartburg 117.5, Augsburg 116The Auggies won the previous three NCAA championships and were on the cusp of winning four in a row had it not been for a complete meltdown. Augsburg coach Jeff Swenson said that losing the title still haunts him. His teams won the next two titles, which could have meant six NCAA wrestling titles in a row — a record for Division III — had they won in 1999.
2003: Wartburg 166.5, Augsburg 84.5The Knights set the all-time D3 point record with three champs, six finalists, and 10 All-Americans — and placed 82 points ahead of the Auggies. Ladies and gentlemen, Wartburg has left the building.
2004: Wartburg 156.5, Augsburg 140.5Wartburg and Augsburg each had four individual NCAA champions, but the Knights had seven finalists and nine All-Americans to earn a 16-point win.
2007: Augsburg 135.5, Wartburg 99.5Swenson led his team to a 40-point victory over Wartburg during his final season as head coach. It was his 10th and final title before becoming athletic director at Augsburg.
2015: Augsburg 100, Wartburg 89.5Wartburg appeared to be a lock entering the tournament after dismantling Augsburg 25-7 in a dual earlier in the year. The Auggies had an inspired performance led by bonus point after bonus point. Current Wartburg coach Eric Keller boycotted Hersey’s candy bars afterward since the championships were held in Hersey, Pennsylvania.
Wartburg set the record for points at the 2003 NCAA DIII tournament with 166.5 points. Every wrestler earned All-American honors, including three NCAA champions and three runner-ups. It was the third of 10 NCAA championships during Jim Miller's tenure as head wrestling coach.
The starting line-up was Heath Ropp (125 1st at 125), Ozzie Saxton (2nd at 133), Wil Kelly (1st at 141), Bart Mehlert (3rd at 149), Kevin Bratland (2nd at 157), Ryan Sturm (4th at 165), Mark Sturm (6th at 174), Sonny Alvarez (2nd at 184), Alain Djoumessi (3rd at 197), and LeRoy Gardner (1st at 285). Eric Keller, Dave Malecek, Nick Mitchell, Steve Walker, and Matt Walker were assistants.

"The gallery has been turned into a living room
which was the location of where my mother would do my hair growing up
it’s where many of us got our hair done,” Gayle says
“It was important to pay homage to that and bring that layer of Afro-nostalgia into my work.”
8 opening reception for her art installation "GOOD Hair."Courtesy of Yesenia Villanueva DominguezGayle studied graphic design at Augsburg and graduated in December
“GOOD Hair” is her senior capstone project
part of the university’s Art & Design Senior Showcase Exhibition
Gayle is now a freelance art director for Black-owned companies and organizations
as well as an assistant art director for Late Bloomer Media
“GOOD Hair” follows Gayle’s 2023 photo series “Dear Hair,” about “the process many African American women go through when reverting to their natural hair.”
The project was inspired by Gayle’s love for her own hair
something she says her mother instilled in her by teaching her how to care for it
Gayle explains that “good hair” is a term in Black culture used to refer to hair that is more Eurocentric in nature as opposed to hair that is thicker
“It represents layers of texture-ism and colorism that can be embedded within our community
and something that is passed down through a sense of kind of representing how this world has taught so many Black people to not love who they are or how their hair naturally is,” Gayle says
Gayle says the art installation is a love letter to her mother and to Black people and Black culture
with a sense of nostalgia and joy and gratitude towards being Black and embracing this culture,” Gayle says
I hope you can step away with an appreciation of the richness that is Black culture and how it is embedded in every facet of life.”
