SEWARD, Neb. – Senior Braxton Greenburg has become the third pitcher from the Concordia University, Nebraska Baseball team to earn conference recognition already this 2025 season.

Greenburg joins teammates Alex Johnson (Feb. 12) and Micah Sweeton (March 4) as Bulldogs to be honored with GPAC Pitcher of the Week awards this season.
During the period (March 17-23) considered for the latest weekly awards, Greenburg made starts against both Northwestern and Doane.
