The University of Minnesota Duluth women's basketball team is set to take on Augustana University in tomorrow's NSIC semi-final game. This will be the fifth straight semi-final game for the Bulldogs. 

The Bulldogs, fresh off their dominating win over Concordia St. Paul, will look to advance to their fifth straight conference championship game. The Bulldogs move to a 25-3 overall record and have increased their total points on the season to 1965. UMD currently ranks fifth in NCAA DII in field goals and first in the NSIC with a .474 percentage. UMD's defense is currently ranked 8th in NCAA DII and first in the NSIC only allowing 55.2 points per game. 

Brooke Olson will lead the charge for the Bulldogs, scoring 28 points against Concordia in the quarterfinals. Olson is first in the NSIC for points scored and second in NCAA DII. The Bulldogs will also look to freshman Lexi Karge and Taytum Rhoades who both had 14 and 13 points against the Golden Bears. 

Augustana, the number two seed in the NSIC South, is fresh off their quarterfinal round where they bested the Wolves of Northern State 78-67. Players to watch for the Vikings are #22 Lauren Sees and #32 Aislinn Duffy who tied the NSIC tournament record with 18 rebounds in Sunday's game. 

Tip off is set for 11:00 am at the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, SD.
