SEWARD, Neb. – The Concordia Shooting Sports program is preparing to host the sixth annual Concordia Bulldog Sporting Invitational. The 2021 edition of the event is set to run this Saturday and Sunday (Oct. 2-3) at Oak Creek Sporting Club in Brainard, Neb., where action will begin at 9 a.m. CT both days. Oak Creek Sporting Club serves as the home range for the Bulldogs, who hosted nearly 100 collegiate competitors at the 2020 invitational. This weekend, 12 teams and approximately 160 athletes are expected to be on hand.
Head Coach Scott Moniot’s squad carries momentum into its annual home event.

The Bulldogs came away from the Prairie Circuit shoot with team championships in trap (485), trap doubles (473) and skeet doubles (246).
Colten Uitermarkt is the reigning Concordia Invitational champion having cracked 276 total targets at last year’s event. The Bulldogs boasted the top three females in the competition: Monica Dale (253), Sarah Schwacher (251) and Breese (249). Hambly earned the title of super sporting male champion while Schwacher was the female titlist in super sporting. Midland emerged with the high overall team championship.
