Saint John’s University sophomore Alex Niederloh’s (Maple Grove, Minn.) second goal of the season, his second game-winning goal in the last four matches, as SJU strengthened its postseason chances with a 2-0 win over Saint Mary's Oct. 26.

Following a scoreless first half, junior Zane Heinselman (River Falls, Wis.) took advantage of an SMU turnover near midfield and found Niederloh in the middle of the box with 16:31 remaining.

The Johnnies (7-6-3, 5-2-2 MIAC) can clinch an MIAC-playoff berth without playing, thanks to their bye, while the rest of the league squares off today (Oct. 29). To do that, SJU needs either a loss or tie from Augsburg (at St. Olaf) and St. Thomas (vs. Carleton). The top four teams in the league standings advance to the MIAC Playoffs, which are scheduled to be held Nov. 6 (semifinals) and Nov. 9 (championship match).

SJU ends the regular season with a 3 p.m. match this Saturday, Nov. 2, at Concordia-Moorhead.
