In the D3Football.com poll, Augsburg is now the first team in the "Others Receiving Votes" category, just behind No. 25 Concordia-Moorhead. In the AFCA's poll, Augsburg is the third team in the "Others Receiving Votes" category with 80 points.

The men's soccer team has cracked the regional rankings for the first time this season, sitting in the No. 8 spot in the West Region in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America regional poll.

And the men's golf team received a vote in the latest Golf World/Nike Golf Division III Coaches Poll, released by the Golf Coaches Association of America.
