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)

Gameday: Gameday Recap - Box Score - Action Pictures - Gameday Program(word)
MOORHEAD-- Concordia entered Saturday's game with the momentum of a one-game winning streak and the knowledge that thier ability to score goals had suddenly returned. It took all of 5:09 for Hamline to wipe the smile off of  the Cobbers' collective face as they scored a pair of early-game goals on their way to a 3-2 victory.

Concordia misses an opportunity for a conference series sweep, and the chance to move into the MIAC playoff hunt. The Cobbers are now 3-7-0 in the conference and 4-12-0 overall. Concordia is only two points out of a tie for the fifth, and final, league playoff spot. Hamline wins for the second time in conference play, and ups their record to 2-8-0 and 3-10-0 overall.(More) 
 

January 21 Winter Storm Can't Keep Cobbers From Blanking Hamline 5-0.  Gameday: Gameday Recap - Box Score - Action Pictures - Gameday Program(word) MOORHEAD--With the wind gusting up to 40 mph and the snow blowing around like confetti in a New York ticker-tap parade, Concordia broke free of their scoreless slumps and battered Hamline 5-0. Entering the game the Cobbers had not scored in over 182 minutes of play. That all changed at the 2:00 mark of the opening period when Ashley Anderson (Fr., Fargo, N.D.) knocked home a shot from just outside the Piper crease. The only other streak to stop for Concordia was their 0-for-41 slide on the power play. It took the Cobbers almost two periods and three power plays to snap the streak, but Lindsay Czarnecki's (Sr., Riverside, Calif.) team-leading sixth goal of the season at 19:21 put an end to their power play drought and finished the scoring in the game.(More)

Powerless Cobbers Fall to St. Thomas for the Second Straight Day 6-0.
Gameday: Gameday Recap - Box Score
ST. PAUL-- A "power play" by definition means that one team has more players on the ice than its opponent and has a very good chance to score a goal. Unfortunately for Concordia in its series against St. Thomas, it meant that they would just have an extra skater on the ice for two minutes. After going 0-for-8 on the power play on Friday night, the Cobbers went scoreless in their seven attempts and lost to the Tommies for the second straight game by a score of 6-0.

Concordia sees their conference record slide to 2-6-0 and their overall mark fall to 3-11-0. St. Thomas continues to keep pace with league-leading Gustavus as they remain undefested in league play at 7-0-1. The nationally-ranked Tommies are now 10-2-1 overall.(More)
 

January 14 Four-Goal Second Period Crushes Cobbers in 6-0 Defeat at #8 St. Thomas. Gameday: Gameday Recap - Box Score ST. PAUL-- Concordia allowed four goals in the second period and fell 6-0 to nationally-ranked St. Thomas 6-0. The Cobbers held the Tommies scoreless in the first period but then allowed three goals in the first 5:07 of the middle frame to fall for the third straight time. All three losses have come at the hands of teams that are ranked in the top ten in the nation. The defeat drops the Cobbers conference record to 2-5-0 and knocks them out of a four-way tie for fifth place in the MIAC. Concordia is now 3-10-0 overall. St. Thomas wins for the sixth time in the past seven games and remain unbeaten in the MIAC. They are now 6-0-1 in league play and 9-2-1 overall.(More)

Stonewall Johnson Turns In Another Stellar Performance But Cobbers Get Blanked 5-0. 
Gameday: Gameday Recap - Box Score
MOORHEAD-- For one period Cobber goalie Jenna Johnson (Jr., Wadena, Minn.) once again had the ninth-ranked UW-Superior Yellowjackets scratching their heads as they skated back to the bench. After stopping 49 of the 52 shots she faced on Friday night, Johnson turned aside all 18 shots she saw in the opening period of Saturday's game. Unfortunately for the Cobbers, Superior was finally able to find a way past Stonewall Johnson in the final two periods and came away with a 5-0 victory in the series finale between the two teams. 

The Yellowjackets once again peppered Johnson for 50+ shots en route to their eighth overall victory. Concordia, which allowed 102 shots in the two-game series, fell to 3-9 on the season.(More) 
 

January 7 Johnson's 49-Save Performance Not Enough As Cobbers Fall to #9 UW-Superior 3-2. Gameday: Gameday Recap - Box Score - Action Pictures - Gameday Program (word) Concordia goaltender Jenna Johnson (Jr., Wadena, Minn.) did everything she could to keep Concordia from losing to UW-Superior for the first time in series history, but in the end she came up one save short as the Cobbers fell to the nationally-ranked Yellowjackets 3-2.  Johnson turned aside 49 of the 52 shots she faced and kept Concordia in the game throughout the entire 60 minutes of play. Superior, who entered the game ranked ninth in the latest USCHO poll, did not take the lead until the final five minutes of the game. The Cobbers tied the game with 2:29 remaining, but the Yellowjackets responded by netting the game-winner just 26 seconds later.  The loss drops Concordia's overall record to 3-8-0, while Superior edges their way to a 7-2-1 mark.(More)

The Pointers backed that up with two goals late in the period to take a 3-0 lead into the second period.(More)

2004-05 Cobber Women's Hockey Preview
- Complete 2004-05 Concordia Women's Hockey Preview
The last of the Arizona Connection is gone, the days of outscoring opponents 7-5 are in the past and the Cobbers are coming off a season where they missed the MIAC playoffs for the first time in three years. Those facts might cause Concordia head coach Kerry Norman to feel nostalgic, but she is firmly rooted in the present and optimistically looking towards the future.

When Norman looks at her team on paper she sees a group of players that will not have one top line that has TNT-like capabilities when it comes to putting the puck in the net, but will have two-three lines that can score goals at opportune times. She also sees a team that will be committed to playing defense and making their opponent earn every goal they score.

The reason for Norman’s optimism is quality leadership and renewed commitment to work. Concordia senior captain Lindsay Czarnecki (Riverside, Calif.) will bring her no-nonsense brand of hockey to the forefront of the Cobber team. She led Concordia in scoring last season with 14 goals and eight assists, and was the lone Cobber representative on the MIAC All-Conference Team. Czarnecki, unlike past Cobber goal-scoring snipers, relies on getting in the right spot at the right time and working for every point she gets.(More)
