MOORHEAD -- Troy Odegaard has been named the head women's basketball coach at Concordia College in Moorhead, Minn., while Bob Kohler has been named assistant coach. Odegaard, a native of Brookings, S. D., has served as the assistant coach the past two seasons and will take over for Sara Cepek - who stepped down earlier in the month. Kohler was Concordia's head women's basketball coach for three seasons from 1992 through 1995, but had to resign from the position due to medical reasons. He has been an assistant football coach throughout his tenure at Concordia and also teaches in the Health and Physical Education department. Odegaard was the boy's assistant varsity coach at Lincoln Southeast
High school in Lincoln, Neb. during the 1999-2000 season before he joined
the Cobber staff. Prior to coaching at Southeast High he was an assistant
coach for the men's team at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln from
1997-1999. He was part of the coaching staff that led the Cornhuskers to
a NCAA tournament appearance in 1998 and the NIT tournament in 1999. Odegaard
was also a graduate assistant and assistant coach for the South Dakota
State men's team from 1995 - 1997. He received his undergraduate
degree from Dakota Wesleyan University in Mitchell, S.D. in 1986 and his
master's degree from SDSU in Brookings, S.D.

1/07 2001-02 Women's Basketball Preview Now Online. 2001-02 Women's Basketball Preview
The team will sport a new attitude toward offense and
overall court quickness. They will make up for their lack of size underneath
with speed on the perimeter. Mandy Berggren
(Cokato, Minn.) who is the team's lone senior will have the dubious task
of running the offense with potentially three first year players on the
court at any given time. Berggren, who was second on the team in assists
last season, will be counted on to take more shots and harness more of
the scoring burden. The other returning player that will also play a big
role in Concordia's season will be junior Kasey
Bostow (Fargo, N.Dak.).
