Game Recap

ST. PAUL, Minn. (1/03/07)-- Concordia shot a season-low 28.8% (17-of-59) from the field and were outscored in overtime as they lost to upset-minded Macalester 57-52 in St. Paul on Wednesday. The loss to the Scots, who only rejoined the MIAC this season, is just the second for the Cobbers in their 45-game series history with the Scots.

Scoreless streaks at the start of the second half and then overtime spelled doom for the Cobbers. Concordia did not score a field goal in the first 6:42 of the second period and then allowed Macalester to score eight straight points in overtime to put an end to their three-game winning streak.

Concordia is now 3-2 in conference play and 5-3 overall. Macalester wins their first conference game since February of 2004 when they beat St. Olaf. The Scots are now 1-4 in the MIAC and 3-5 overall and have won back-to-back games for the first time since the start of the 2001-02 season.

Annie Keeley led all Cobbers in scoring. She scored 14 points before fouling out in the overtime period. Freshman Sara Sorbo was the only other Concordia player in double figures. She had 11 points. CC junior post player Melanie Hageman was held to a season-low six points and made only one field goal from the floor. She added a team-high eight rebounds.

The Scots had a pair of players post double-doubles on the night. Anna Baltzer had 17 points and 13 rebounds and Elise Pagel added 14 points and 14 rebounds.

The shooting totals for Concordia got even colder from behind the arc where CC shot a mere 28.6% (6-of-21) for the game. The Cobbers made only two 3-point field goals in the second half and did not connect on a long-range shot in the five-minute overtime period.

Macalester shot 36.7% (18-of-49) from the field but held a commanding 48-34 advantage in rebounds. The Scots used that advantage to post a 10-0 edge in second-chance points.

The teams combined to commit 47 turnovers. CC posted 21 miscues while the Scots turned the ball over 26 times.

Concordia will look to get back to their winning ways when they host Hamline on Saturday at 3 p.m. in Memorial Auditorium. The game can be seen and heard live on the internet via the Cobber website and will also feature live statistics
