GameDay Tipoff

(What you need to know about Concordia’s NCAA Playoff Appearance)

➢ Concordia is making their first appearance in the NCAA Tournament since the 1995-96 season. That year they lost to Bethel (Minn.) in the first round 64-60.

➢ The Cobbers are 21-6 overall this season, marking the second time in the three-year history under coach Jessica Rahman that they have won at least 21 games in a season. In Rahman’s first season, the team went 21-9 and made it to the conference championship.

➢ Tonight’s game marks the first game against a WIAC opponent for the Cobbers since the 2001-02 season when they lost to UW-Eau Claire 82-67.

➢ Concordia had three players earn conference postseason honors. Melanie Hageman and Annie Keeley were named to the MIAC All-Conference Team and lone senior Tori Ehlert was named to the All-Conference Honorable Mention Team. Keeley was also named to the MIAC All-Defensive Team.

➢ Hageman led the MIAC in field goal percentage this season. The sophomore post connected on 57.2% of her field goals this year. She is ranked 16th in the nation in that category. She also led the team in scoring and posted six double-doubles on the season. She posted a career-high in points (31) on Feb. 11 against Bethel and had a season-high 14 rebounds against Carleton on Feb. 4

➢ The Cobbers were 12-2 at home in 2005-06 and 9-3 in games played away from Memorial Auditorium. They were also 0-1 in games played on a neutral court.

➢ One of the keys for the Cobbers all season long has been their success from behind the 3-point arc. Concordia was 14-0 in conference play when they shot better than 33.3% from long range. They have shot at least 35.0% from 3-point range in their last four games. Against Carleton in the conference championship game, they shot 21.4% from behind the arc in the first half and trailed by 11 at the break. In the second half they went 7-of-13 (53.8%) and won the game by nine. For the game they put up a season-high 27 3-point attempts and finished shooting 37.0%.

➢ Jessica Heintz connected on four of the key 3-point attempts in the game against Carleton. She leads the team in 3-point shooting average (45.3%). She has a higher percentage from behind the arc than she does from the field (38.2%).

➢ Another big key for the Cobbers is their defense and ability to out rebound the opposing team. Concordia held opponents to 58.7 points per game and had a +3.6 rebounds per game average over their foes.

➢ Concordia is 18-1 this season when holding their opponent to under 64 points. The only loss in that category came in the second game of the season when they dropped a 60-46 decision to Pacific Lutheran. The Lutes are currently 22-3 and ranked #1 in the West Region. On the other side of that equation, the Cobbers are 3-5 when their opponents score more than 63 points.

➢ Concordia has only used only three different starting lineups this season. The current starting quintet of Jenna Freudenberg, Annie Keeley, Melanie Hageman, Sarah Krabbenhoft and Tori Ehlert have started the last 15 games and is 13-2 during that time.

➢ The Cobbers are one of the top teams in the MIAC in free throw percentage. They are averaging 72.2% from the line and have only shot under 65.0% from the line five times this season (3-2) and have shot 80.0% or better on eight different occasions (8-0). They are coming off a perfect 7-for-7 outing in the conference championship and were 17-for-22 (77.3%) in the conference tournament.

➢ Concordia has five players that are averaging at least 70.0% from the line this year. Melanie Hageman leads the team with a 79.2% average.

In-Depth Game Day Preview

Scouting the Blue Devils

UW-Stout is participating in their second straight NCAA Tournament and eighth in program history. They are currently ranked 21st in the latest National Poll. Last year the Blue Devils advanced to the round of 16 before losing to Millikin 59-56. Stout has won the past two WIAC regular-season and tournament titles. They are led by the frontrunner for the MVP award in the WIAC, Kelsey Duoss. Duoss is the only Blue Devil averaging in double figures. She led the WIAC in scoring with a 19.3 points per game average. She has scored in double figures in 26 of the team’s 27 games. She scored at least 20 points in all three WIAC tournament games last week and averaged 23.0 points during Stout’s run to the title. She recorded 12 double-doubles this season and had a season-high Minnesota State in the team’s season-opener and had a season-high 18 rebounds against UW-Oshkosh on Dec. 10. She led the team in scoring 25 of the team’s 27 games. She was named the WIAC Player of the Week three different times this season. The Blue Devils are an up-tempo team that likes to push the ball up the court and not run off a lot of time from the possession clock.

Besides Duoss, Stout relies on Molly Hendricks to provide the outside shooting ability. She is second on the team in scoring (8.6 ppg) and leads the team in 3-point field goals (47).

As a team, the Blue Devils are averaging a conference-best 71.7 points per game in conference games and 73.5 points in overall games. They average 61.7 shots attempted per game and led the WIAC in shots attempted. They were second in the WIAC in 3-point field goals attempted – averaging 16.2 3-point shots from behind the arc.

Marquee Match-Up – Post Play

Melanie Hageman (CC) vs. Kelsey Duoss (UWS)

Were you expecting something else? If you look up the term “no-brainer” in the dictionary, you find this match-up. Both players lead their teams in scoring and both have the ability to take over a game at any point. They are similar in the fact that they get up and down the floor very well and can score in transition. They both possess very good footwork and are tough to guard when they get in the low block. They both also shoot the ball extremely well. Duoss is third in the nation in field goal percentage and Hageman is 16th. The edge may be decided on the defensive end of the court where Duoss is a very adept shot blocker. Last year she led the WIAC in blocked shots and was seventh in the nation. This year she second in the conference in blocks and 21st in the nation.

Marquee Spotlight – Last 10 minutes of the game

Concordia has made their run to the NCAA Tournament on the strength of their play in the final 10 minutes of the game. The Cobbers have outscored their opponents in the final 10 minutes of the game in 16 of the past 18 games. Against Carleton in the conference championship game, Concordia took a three-point lead into the final 10 minutes of the game and turned it into a nine-point victory, outscoring the Knights 22-16 over that span. In the past 18 games, Concordia has outscored their opponents by almost 90 points in the final stretch of the game and in the MIAC Tournament held a 43-27 advantage in the final 10 minutes of the game. The Cobbers are

15-1 in the 16 games they have bettered their foe down the stretch.

Nationally Speaking

Concordia is ranked among the top 50 in three different categories. The Cobbers are 38th in free throw percentage (72.2%), 44th in 3-point field goal percentage (34.9%) and 47th in won-loss percentage. Individually, Concordia is represented by Melanie Hageman in individual statistics. Hageman is ranked 16th in the nation in field goal percentage (57.2%). UW-Stout is ranked in a pair of categories. The Blue Devils are 35th in scoring offense (73.5) and 45th in rebound margin (+6.2). Kelsey Duoss is the lone Stout player in the national rankings. She is ranked in three different categories. She is third in field goal percentage (63.7%), 21st in blocked shots per game (2.4 blocks per game) and 29th in points per game (19.3 ppg).

The three leading scorers for the MIAC Tournament Champion Concordia women's basketball team were all awarded MIAC postseason honors it was announced by the conference office on Wednesday.

Melanie Hageman (So., Fargo, N.D./Fargo South HS) and Annie Keeley (Jr., Grafton, N.D.) were named to the MIAC All-Conference Team while, the lone senior on the team, Tori Ehlert (Battle Lake, Minn.) was placed on the MIAC All-Conference Honorable Mention Team. Keely was also honored as a member of the MIAC All-Defensive Team.

The trio helped Concordia record 21 wins during the year and capture the MIAC Tournament Championship for the first time in the six-year history of the event. They were also the driving force behind the march to the NCAA Tournament - the team's 15th appearance in the national tournament in the history of the program.

It is the third straight year that Keely has earned MIAC postseason honors and second consecutive for both Hageman and Ehlert. Keeley was named to the All- First Year Team as a freshman and last year was named to the All-Conference Honorable Mention Team. Like Keeley, Hageman was the recipient of All-First Year honors, while Ehlert was named to the All-Conference Honorable Mention Team.

Hageman has matured into one of the premiere players in the MIAC. Her footwork in the post and ability to turn and take the ball at the basket makes her one of the biggest threats in the league every time she touches the ball.

She led the Cobbers in scoring with a 16.3 points per game average in overall games. She averaged 17.6 points in the team's 20 league games. She led the MIAC in field goal percentage, connecting on 59.1% of her attempts from the field. She was also third in the league in scoring, fourth in rebounding (7.6 rebounds per game) and fourth in free throw percentage (80.6%).

Hageman scored in double figures in 18 of the team's 20 conference games and put up 20-plus points on five occasions. She recorded six double-doubles during conference play. She also scored a career-high 31 points against Bethel on Feb. 11.

Keeley was one of the best defensive players in the league and possessed an uncanny ability to hit a 3-point basket at clutch times throughout the season. She was second on the team in scoring in overall games (12.4 ppg) and conference games (11.7 ppg). The 5-6 guard was also third on the team in rebounding (4.0 rpg) - a testament to her strength and courage to go up against players 6-8 inches taller.

Keeley scored in double figures in 15 conference games and currently has a streak of seven straight games with at least 10 points - the longest streak of any player on the team. She scored a season-high 25 points against St. Olaf on Dec. 10 and recorded the only double-double of her career in the final regular-season game against Hamline. She was 14th in the MIAC in scoring, ninth in assists (2.8 assists per game), 12th in free throw percentage (71.9%), ninth in steals (1.7 steals per game), 12th in 3-point field goal percentage (36.4%) and 13th in 3-point field goals made (32).

Ehlert capped her conference career in fitting fashion by cutting down the nets after the team's tournament title. She led by example both on and off the court. Although she didn't post the big numbers in every game, she factored in all areas of the statistic sheet and always played as if it was her last game. She was third on the team in scoring in overall games with an 8.5 points per game average. She averaged 8.6 points in the team's 20 conference games. She tied for the lead in rebounding in overall games (7.0 rpg) and was second in conference play (7.0 rpg). She was second on the team in steals (32) in conference games and also second in blocks (11).

Among the conference leaders, she was third in defensive rebounds (5.35/game), sixth in rebounding and tied for 15th in both steals and blocked shots.

Concordia had three players factor in double figures but none were more crucial than the 12 second-half points put up by freshman guard Jessica Heintz. Heintz went scoreless in the first half and then came out and knocked down four shots from behind the arc to ignite the comeback. She also added a career-high seven assists. Cobber sophomore post player Melanie Hageman scored a game-high 17 points. She was aided by the result of Concordia's hot outside shooting in the second half as the Knights had to extend their defense and not double down on Hageman every time down the court. Annie Keely shook off a tough first half that saw her go 1-of-5 from 3-point range to finish with 16 points. She hit one of the key baskets in the game. With the shot clock ready to run out, and the Cobbers trying to finish off the game in the final two minutes, Keely freed herself in the right corner and calmly drained the long-range shot to give the Cobbers a double-digit advantage.

Carleton had only two players score in double figures and no player post more than 12 points. Senior Megan Vig scored a team-high 12 points, but was held to only two points in the decisive second half. Vig also claimed six rebounds. Kari Christianson had 10 points and also grabbed six rebounds.

In recent games, Concordia has thrived in the final stretch of the game, outscoring opponents in the final 10 minutes of the game in 15 of the past 17 games. The championship game would be no exception as the Cobbers held a 22-16 advantage in the last half of the second period.

For the game, Carleton held a 27-22 advantage in rebounds but turned the ball over 19 times as compared to only 11 for Concordia. The Cobbers turned that advantage into a 21-7 edge in points scored off of turnovers.

The Knights shot a blistering 85.7% (12-of-14) from the free throw line, but the Cobbers did that one better by going a perfect 7-of-7 from the line.
