2/3 Concordia Loses Battle of
Runs to Carleton 79-70.
Concordia lost a battle of runs, and fell for the first time in eight
games 79-70 to Carleton. The two teams traded leads until the 9:01 mark
of the first half when Carleton grabbed the lead at 21-20, and the Cobbers
could never catch the balanced scoring Knights the rest of the way. Carleton
(13-2, 15-3) had four players in double figures, and their defense limited
Concordia (13-3, 15-4) to 4-for14 from 3-point range. Overall the Cobbers
shot 44 percent (24-for-54) from the field in the game, while the Knights
shot 49 percent (28-for-57) from the floor.
The decisive run in the first half came midway though the period when Carleton went on a 11-0 break, and turned a three-point deficit into an eight point lead. Concordia proceeded to reel off five straight points and get to within three before Carleton scored the next four to finish the half with a 36-29 lead. The Knights scored 13 points off of turnovers in the opening period.
The second half was the same as the first as each team made runs. Carleton pushed the lead to 10 with 16 minutes left, and then the Cobbers made a run to cut the margin to three with 13 minutes left. After trading baskets the next four minutes, Concordia cut the lead to one at 56-55 with 9:31 to play. Carleton went on their game-winning 6-0 run in the next minute, and the Cobbers would never threaten after that point.
Sara Spears (Sr., Spicer, MN) was the game's high scorer, as she continued her hot hand, with 22 points. Brandi Myers (Sr, Glyndon, MN), the league's leading scorer, was held in check for most of the game but managed to finish with 15. Sarah Jacobson (Sr., Fargo, ND) and Steph Losch (Sr., Hallock,, MN) shared gam-high rebounding honors with eight. Bridget Seegers paced the Knights as she finished with 19. Besides Seegers, the other Knights in double figures included; Karisssa Kramer with 15, 14 from Renee Willette and 13 from Angie Grabowski.
Concordia's seven-game winning streak is snapped and they fall into fourth place in the MIAC. Carleton's 15 overall wins and 13 MIAC victories ties a school record for wins in both categories.
The Cobbers stay at home and host Gustavus on Monday at 5:30.

Concordia vs. Carleton Game Day Preview
The Headline: Cobbers Must be Butter, 'Cause They're on a Roll!
The Teams:
Concordia (13-2 in the MIAC, 15-3 Overall)
Concordia has won seven games in a row. They are currently in second
place in the MIAC, and ranked fourth in the NCAA Division II West Region.
They are coming off a come-from-behind victory over St. Olaf 76-68. In
that game, the Cobbers were down 40-30 at halftime, and by as many as 12
points in the second half. They rallied
for 46 second half points and caught the Oles midway through the final
period. Leading the charge for Concordia was the newest member of the 1,000-point
club, Sara Spears, who finished with 18 points and 10 rebounds. It was
her second consecutive double-double of the season and her sixth of the
year. She is currently seventh on Concordia's all-time rebounding list
with 696, and 16th on the scoring chart with 1, 018 points. The game
this afternoon will go a long way in determining the order of finish in
the MIAC. The winner of today's game will have a chance to finish in the
top-two while the loser will, more than likely, have to settle for 3rd
or 4th place. The top six teams make the MIAC playoffs and the top two
teams receive first round byes and the 3rd and 4th place teams have to
host a quarterfinal game.
Carleton (12-2 in the MIAC, 14-3 Overall)
Carleton is enjoying their best season ever. They are one win away
from equaling school records for most wins in the MIAC and most wins overall.
The Knights are second in the MIAC in field goal percentage, shooting 46%
in league play. Carleton is led by forward Renee Willette, who leads the
team in scoring and free throws. Karissa Kramer leads the team in rebounding.
She is averaging 7.6 rebounds per game. Kramer and teammate Angie Grabowski
were named to the 1999-2000 MIAC All-First Year team

The Key Match-Up: Sarah Jacobson - CC
vs. Renée Willette - Carl

in trips to the free throw line. She is among the league leaders in scoring.

game winning streak. Although she never puts up big numbers in one category,
she is always figuring prominently in all categories. In the past seven
games she is averaging 6 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals. She
has become the Cobbers all-around inside player.
