Adidas Team of the Week Announced
LA GRANDE, Ore. – The Concordia University women’s basketball team has been named the Adidas Team of the Week for December 1-7.
Concordia opened Cascade Conference action, not only defending home court, but upsetting two top 25 ranked teams in the process.
In a very close contest, CU used a stifling defense the last six minutes of the game against No. 13 and preseason favorite Southern Oregon, to hold on for the 67-66 win. The Raiders went the final 6:17 without a field goal. CU’s Jordyn Peacock led the Cavs with a 17-point, 12 –rebound performance.
Against No. 25, and defending CCC champion Oregon Tech, the Cavs showed no let down from the big win the previous evening in running their CCC record to 2-0 with a 58-55 victory. Lexi Campbell notched 16-points.
CU (7-1, 2-0 CCC) will next take on two NCAA DII foes Dec. 13&14 as they travel to Central Washington and St. Martin’s.
