The Lindenwood Lady Lions ice hockey team represents Lindenwood University located in St. Charles, Missouri. The Lady Lions participate in NCAA Division I competition as a member of the Atlantic Hockey America (AHA) conference. The team played with no conference affiliation as an Independent program for its first season of NCAA competition.[2] Lindenwood joined College Hockey America (CHA), a women-only conference, beginning in the 2012–13 season. After the 2023–24 season, CHA and the men-only Atlantic Hockey Association merged to create Atlantic Hockey America.[3] Prior to 2011 the university was a member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), because the organization does not sponsor women's ice hockey, the program competed in the American Collegiate Hockey Association at the ACHA Division I level.

The university completed the process of transitioning to the National Collegiate Athletic Association Division II for most athletics except for men's volleyball and women's ice hockey, which compete at the NCAA Division I level.[4][5] As part of the Lindenwood University athletic program's transition to the NCAA, the team was not eligible for NCAA post season play until becoming a full member in 2014.[6]

Ice hockey at Lindenwood began in 2003, when men's and women's ice hockey were added as part of the ongoing university and athletic department expansion. The NAIA national ice hockey championship for men's hockey was discontinued in 1984, women's was never an NAIA sport Lindenwood fields teams in the American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA) along with a handful of other NAIA institutions and various club programs of NCAA institutions.[7]

The team played strong during the regular season, even during a rebuilding year, highlights of the season included a tough 6–10 loss to NCAA Division I Sacred Heart.[15] The team once again qualified for the ACHA Women's Division I National Championship and advanced to the Championship game again against Robert Morris University. This time the Lady Lions came up short to the Eagles with a 1–4 loss.[16][17]

The 2007–08 season marked the end of LU as an independent team in the ACHA, the Lady Lions joined the Central Collegiate Women's Hockey Association (CCWHA).

Coaches

From the program's inception to the end of the 2013–2014 season, Vince O'Mara was the head coach of the Lady Lions women's ice hockey program. Prior to joining the NCAA, O'Mara was a 2-time ACHA Coach of the Year (2005–06,[43] 2009–10[44]). He has compiled a record of 241–26–11 over 8 seasons behind the bench of the Lady Lions and is currently 0–1–0 against NCAA Division I opponents, 9–4–1 against NCAA Division III opponents, and 231–21–10 against ACHA opponents. In 2010 O'Mara was named assistant coach on the 2011 United States University Women’s Select Team that competed at the 2011 Winter World University Games in Erzurum, Turkey.[45]

Following the 2013–2014 season, O'Mara's contract was not renewed owing largely to their 20–73–6 record in Division 1. Scott Spencer was hired to replace O'Mara. Spencer spent 2012–2014 with the Pursuit of Excellence Hockey Academy in Kelowna, BC after spending 2006–2011 as an assistant coach for Robert Morris and 2005 as an assistant coach at Ohio State.[46]

After the conclusion of the 2018–19 season, the program announced head coach Scott Spencer had been relieved of his duties and was beginning a search for a new head coach. Spencer compiled a 42–112–13 record in his five seasons at Lindenwood, including a 26–64–10 mark inside conference play. A few months later former Olympic gold medalist Shelley Looney was hired to replace Spencer.

Following the 2022–23 season, Lindenwood announced a coaching change. Taylor Wasylk was named head coach of the program a few months later in May 2023.
