Lindenwood University athletic performance

Overview

Lindenwood University athletics reported mixed results across various programs in late 2026. In September, the women’s volleyball team achieved a strong start to its season with a 10-2 record, marking the program’s best start in the NCAA era. Entering Ohio Valley Conference play on a five-match winning streak, the team led the conference in hitting percentage, kills per set, and assists per set. Key contributors included Susanna Beretti, Autumn Bax, and Dana Grib. Simultaneously, the women’s golf team tied for sixth place at the Johnie Imes Invitational in Columbia, Missouri, finishing with a total score of 933, aided by Petra Balkovec’s even-par 72 in the final round. By mid-October, the men’s hockey team saw fluctuating results. Following a 4-3 loss to Lake Superior State, the Lions secured a 7-4 victory against the Air Force Falcons in a non-conference matchup in Colorado Springs. After trailing 2-0 early in the game, Lindenwood utilized power-play goals from Kim Elfving and Caden Brown to tie the score before the first intermission. Despite Air Force tying the game at 4-4 late in the second period, Lindenwood regained control in the third period by scoring three unanswered goals, including a strike by freshman Andy Earl. In late October, the men’s ACHA hockey team split a weekend series against the Liberty Flames, following a 5-2 loss with a 4-2 victory. In the Saturday win, Brandon Catalano scored two goals, including a power-play equalizer, while Alex Cameron and Nick Jones also contributed to the scoring.
