Game Recap

MOORHEAD, Minn. (1/06/07)-- For the second straight game, Concordia suffered from a cold shooting touch and lost in the final minutes of play. On Wednesday, the Cobbers lost to Macalester in overtime and on Saturday, Concordia got close to Hamline in the final minutes but were never able to grab a lead and lost 67-60.
