2/19 Concordia Holds Off Gustavus
61-58.
Concordia managed to hold off a late Gustavus rally and win 61-58 in
the first round of the first-ever MIAC playoffs. The Cobbers led 49-39
with just under seven minutes to play, but then Gustavus (14-11) slowly
whittled away at the lead and cut the gap to four at 54-50 with 2:47
left in the game. From that point on, Concordia (19-6) scrapped to
stay even with the Gusties, and hung on for the three-point victory. Sara
Spears (Sr., Spicer, MN) carried Concordia in the crucial minutes
of the game, and finished with 13 points and 10 rebounds. It was her
second straight game with a double-double and eighth of the year. Laura
Haugen had 16 points to lead Gustavus, while Kelly Etzel finished with
14 points and 10 rebounds.
Concordia staked their claim to the victory with seven minutes to go in the first half when they went on a 10-point run that turned a close 22-20 ball game into an uphill battle for Gustavus at 32-22. The Cobbers would take a 13-point lead, their biggest lead of the game, when Kasey Bostow (So., Fargo, ND) scored on a lay-up with one minute to play in the first half before letting the Gusties close to 37-28 at the half.
In the second half Concordia flirted with a double figure lead for the first 13 minutes until Gustavus started to gather momentum and set the table for the dramatic finish to the game.
Both teams struggled from the field as Concordia struggled to shoot 33 percent (15-for-54) in the game, while Gustavus fared slightly better by hitting for 35 percent (24-for-67). Concordia had two other players, besides Spears, with 10 rebounds for the game. Sarah Jacobson (Sr., Fargo, ND) and Katrina Wilberts (So., Breckenridge, MN) came away with double figure in rebounds, and let the Cobbers neutralize Gustavus' height advantage underneath.
With the win Concordia advances to the semifinals of the inaugural MIAC
women's tournament. They will take on St. Thomas on Wednesday at 7:30 in
St. Paul.

Concordia vs. Gustavus Game Day Preview
The Headline: Tourney Time!
The Teams:
Concordia (16-5 in the MIAC, 18-6 Overall)
The wait is finally over, and it is time for the first-ever MIAC women's
basketball tournament. Concordia is the fourth seed and is 3-2 in their
last five games. Even though the team has been traveling through peaks
and valleys, Senior Sara Spears has been consistently touring the peak
region. Over the five-game stretch she is averaging 16 points and 9 rebounds
per game. Teammate Brandi Myers is closing in on a pair of records. She
is currently tied for the school, and MIAC, record in career 3-point baskets
with 162. Cathy Johnson (88-92) is the current record holder. Myers is
also within striking distance of the school's career steal record. She
has 288 steals on her career, and the record is 298 by Kristi Schultz (89-93).
Gustavus (11-10 in the MIAC, 14-10 Overall)
Gustavus is the fifth seed and also 3-2 in their last five games. The
Gusties waited until the final game of the season before clinching a playoff
spot. They were in position to clinch with three games to go, but subsequent
losses to Bethel and Hamline left them needing the victory on Saturday
against Augsburg. They responded by outscoring the Auggies 40-26 in the
second half.

The Key Statistic: Turnovers

have turned the ball over 25 times. In the second game, Gustavus turned
the ball over 17 times in the first half and were down 18 at the break.
They played even with the Cobbers in the second half at 36-36 and only
turned the ball over 8 times. Gustavus is averaging 18.16 giveaways a game,
while Concordia is coughing it up on an average of 17.70 per game. The
Cobbers turned the ball over 16 times in the first game and won by 24.
In the second game they were leading by 18 at the break on 8 turnovers
and then had 13 turnovers in the second half and let Gustavus creep back

The Key Match-Up: Sara Spears - CC vs.
Kelly Etzel - GAC Part II
Once again the spotlight will be focused in the paint. Spears is playing
some of the best basketball of her career and is on a statistical tear
the last several games. On Saturday she exploded for 16 points and 18 rebounds.
Etzel is among the league leaders in scoring, rebounding and field goal
percentage. The value Etzel has for the Gusties can be summed up by last
week's games. In the two losses to Hamline and Bethel, Etzel had a combined
26 points. In the must-win situation on Saturday Etzel poured in 26 and
Gustavus finally clinched a spot in the playoffs.
