Bulldogs hold steady in latest NAIA Top 25 Poll

Concordia University remained seventh in the latest NAIA Top 25 Poll which was released on Monday.  The Bulldogs have a 10-1 overall record to go along with a 5-1 mark in the always competitive Great Plains Athletic Conference. 

The GPAC continues to be represented well, as four teams are still ranked in the top 10 of the NAIA.  Briar Cliff, who was second in last week’s poll, dropped one spot to third following their loss to Concordia.  Morningside College remained fifth with a 9-3 record, while Hastings College (9-2) is eighth in this week’s poll.  Northwestern College remained 20th this week, while Doane College received votes. 

The Bulldogs picked up a pair of wins this past week, starting with a thrilling 89-87 overtime win over then No. 2 Briar Cliff.  Concordia followed with a 62-49 win over Dakota Wesleyan at the Corn Palace on Saturday.  The Bulldogs have some time off before traveling to Doane College on December 20.
