South Dakota State subdues DII-level Augustana 24-3 in first meeting in two decades
BROOKINGS, S.D. (AP) — Amar Johnson ran for 126 yards on 17 carries and scored a touchdown and top-ranked FCS South Dakota State beat Augustana 24-3 on Saturday.
The Vikings, from Sioux Falls, S.D., entered ranked No. 18 at the Division II level and took a 3-0 lead on its first drive of the game on a 32-yard field goal from Jake Pecina.
South Dakota State (2-1) responded with a three-minute, six-play, 60-yard drive capped by Mark Gronowski nine-yard run. Johnson had a 1-yard touchdown run early in the second quarter and Gronowsku had a 1-yard plunge midway through the third.
It was the first meeting between the two teams since 2004 in a series that dates back to 1931.
The two programs were once longtime members of the North Central Conference until the Jackrabbits moved to FCS Division I in 2004.

VIEWPOINT | South Dakotans deserve the full story
Families in South Dakota work hard. We sacrifice a lot and ask very little from the people who govern us. We expect honesty, careful budgeting, and leadership that puts our interests above politics.
In his recent budget address, our governor painted an incomplete picture. He celebrated good results but did not explain what and who made those results possible. South Dakotans deserve more than selective storytelling. We deserve the truth.
