After a loss and win this past week, Concordia sits tied with Hastings at the top of the league standings deep into their 2023 campaign. Their toughest week of the season comes against conference opponents College of Saint Mary (3rd) and Hastings (1st-tied) as the Bulldogs vie for the top spot.
This may have been Concordia's best win and best all-around performance to this point in the 2023 season. The Bulldogs got an early goal from Kierstynn Garner and rode it to a 1-0 victory at Jamestown on Saturday (Oct. 7).
The highest scoring team in the GPAC met its match on Wednesday (Oct. 4) as the Bulldogs were shut out by visiting Morningside, 1-0. The Mustangs got a goal in the 25th minute and road it to victory inside Bulldog Stadium.
Having gone unbeaten (5-0-1) in the last six matchups, Concordia will be challenged by two foes (Morningside and Jamestown) who sit near the top of the GPAC. Coach Nick Smith’s young squad is 8-2-1 overall and 4-0-1 GPAC.

Concordia has shut out their last two opponents but will host a talented Midland squad on Wednesday (Sept. 27), then ride up to Dakota Wesleyan for their second match of the week on Saturday (Sept. 30).
Playing after the men’s game, which has become common in the 2023 season, left a field that was wet and torn before Concordia matched up against Northwestern.
On paper, the 2015 season looked like somewhat of a rebuilding year for Concordia University women’s soccer following a GPAC tournament championship season in 2014. The Bulldogs had graduated a pair of first team all-conference choices and a second team all-league selection after the program had earned its first-ever national tournament bid.
Concordia University women’s soccer continues to gravitate to new heights. On Tuesday the Bulldogs jumped five spots in the national poll to No. 16, a position that again ranks as the highest placement in program history.
