The Bulldogs have found a groove during their active four-game win streak. Concordia hopes to continue forcing turnovers and knocking down treys in Tuesday's game at CSM.
The Bulldogs are growing up quickly. The win streak has reached four after a 73-62 triumph over No. 8 Dordt on Saturday (Nov. 21). Four Bulldogs reached double figures in scoring.
First team All-American senior guard Kristen Conahan hit three after three down the stretch to propel the fifth-ranked Concordia women’s basketball team to a 90-82 victory over No. 5 Morningside inside Walz Arena last week. The GPAC took notice and on Tuesday named Conahan the first conference player of the week of the 2013-14 season.
This looked more like vintage Concordia Women’s Basketball. The Bulldogs forced 31 turnovers on the night and went 11-for-17 from 3-point range after halftime in a 111-52 blowout at Doane.
GPAC play heats back up this week after Monday's 80-58 win at Peru State. The Bulldogs will be at Doane on Wednesday before hosting No. 8 Dordt on Saturday.
Kristen Conahan, the 5-foot-5 senior from Omaha, had ice water flowing though her veins, drilling three consecutive 3-pointers in the extended time to bury the visiting third-ranked Mustangs in a battle of top-five teams. She was spotting up from all over, leaving the Mustang defenders scrambling to put a hand in her face.
The Bulldog Women's Basketball program made its first trip to Peru since 2007 and came away with an 80-58 victory. Defensive pressure and rebounding led the way.
Two perennially powerful GPAC programs seeking their first wins met inside Friedrich Arena on Saturday (Nov. 14). Taylor Cockerill reached a milestone while leading an 83-72 win.
Lexis Haase and her Midland teammates took it to the 11th-ranked Bulldogs on Tuesday (Nov. 10) at Friedrich Arena. Taysha Rushton (23) and Taylor Cockerill (17) led Concordia in scoring.
GPAC play is already here for Bulldog Basketball. Concordia will look to shake off an 0-2 start when it hosts Midland on Tuesday. Taylor Cockerill needs 26 points to reach 1,000 in her career.
