The College Sporting News Feature on Lindsay Czarnecki.
- MIAC Profiles of Excellence - Lindsay Czarnecki
Minnesota prides itself in being “The State of Hockey,” and most casual fans associate the sport with cold, snowy northern climates like Minnesota or Canada. This makes it ironic that Lindsay Czarnecki, one of the all-time top scorers to ever take the ice for Concordia College, hails not from Minnesota or nearby Canada, but from sunny southern California.

Lindsay grew up in Riverside, a city of just under 300,000 about 40 miles east of Los Angeles. Her father works for FOX Sports and is involved in the behind-the-scenes production work for their coverage of the NFL. He previously worked for CBS Sports in a similar capacity. She is the youngest of three sisters. “My oldest sister, Scarlet, wasn’t a big athlete,” said Lindsay. “She’s a nurse now. My other sister, Vanessa, played softball at Fresno State, a Division I school. Because our mom was born in Greece, she was able to play on the Greek team in the 2004 Summer Olympics.”(More)

Gameday: Gameday Recap - Box Score - Action Pictures - Gameday Program (word)
Concordia played one of their best periods of the season in the first frame against St. Olaf, building a 2-1 lead and getting several quality chances against the third-place Oles. That all changed in the second period as the Cobbers allowed a pair of power play goals and ended up losing to St. Olaf 5-3. 

The two goals in the middle period were a part of a four-goal string by the Oles - three of which were scored on the power play. Concordia scored the final goal of the game but was unable to recapture any of their first-period magic and ended up falling by two.(More)
 

February 18 Cobbers Fall to Playoff-Bound St. Olaf 3-1. Gameday: Gameday Recap - Box Score - Action Pictures - Gameday Program (word) MOORHEAD--Concordia gave up two goals in the first 10 minutes of play and could never recover as they lost to St. Olaf 3-1. With the win, the Oles clinch a spot in the playoffs for the second straight season. The victory also locks up third place for St. Olaf. The Oles can’t catch the two frontrunners, Gustavus and St. Thomas, and can’t be caught by any team fighting for the fourth and fifth place spots.  The Cobbers, winless in their last six league games, see their MIAC record fall to 3-11-1 and their overall mark slide to 4-16-1. St. Olaf improves to 10-4-1 in league play and 12-8-1 in all games.(More)

Possessed Cobbers Give Up Alien-Like Goal in Last Minute and Lose 4-3 to Bethel. 
Gameday: Gameday Recap - Box Score - Action Pictures - Gameday Program (word)
MOORHEAD-- For the second game in a row the final 30 seconds in the game reared its ugly head for the Cobbers. Like an alien appearing from inside the body of an unsuspecting human in a science fiction horror film, the Cobbers were terrorized by a goal in the dying seconds of the game for the second consecutive contest.

On Friday it was a pair of goals in the final 35 seconds that enable Bethel to gain a tie with the Cobbers. On Saturday, the Royals scored a goal at the 19:30 mark and came away with a 4-3 victory.(More)
 

February 11 Cobbers Snatch a Tie Out of the Jaws of Victory. Gameday: Gameday Recap - Box Score - Action Pictures - Gameday Program (word) MOORHEAD-- With :36 remaining in the game, Concordia held a 2-0 and it looked as if the Cobbers would gain their fifth win of the season and snap their three-game losing streak with a shutout. Unfortunately for Concordia a college hockey game lasts a full 60 minutes. In the waning seconds of the game, Bethel unbelievably scored a pair of goals and snatched a sure victory away from the Cobbers. The two teams skated for an extra five minutes of overtime before finally settling for the 2-2 tie.  The tie does put a halt to Concordia's three-game skid. The Cobbers are now 3-9-1 in league play and 4-14-1 overall. Buoyed by their last-second heroics, the Royals improve their record to 2-9-2 in the MIAC and 2-12-2 overall.(More)

November 29 Ashley Anderson Named MIAC Player of the Week! Concordia freshman forward Ashley Anderson (Fr., Fargo, N.D.) was named the MIAC Women's Hockey Player of the Week for her two-game performance against Lake Forest (Ill.) last weekend. It is the first time in her career that she has won the award, and she becomes the first Cobber player to win the award since Lindsay Czarnecki (Sr., Riverside, Calif.) won the award on February 2. Anderson scored two of Concordia’s three goals in a weekend split with Lake Forest. In the Cobbers' 2-1 win on Friday, Anderson scored the game-winning goal with 11:11 left in the game as the Cobbers rebounded from a 1-0 third period deficit to earn their first win of the season. In Saturday’s 2-1 loss, Anderson scored the team's lone goal of the game. The score came on the power play in the second period to give Concordia a 1-0 lead.  Anderson currently leads the Cobbers with three goals in six games this season.
