WS: Still seeking first GPAC win

Article Body: The Concordia University, Nebraska women's soccer team suffered a pair of setbacks during the past week, falling 1-0 to Midland Lutheran College and 2-0 to Northwestern College. The Bulldogs are still looking for their first GPAC win.

Against Midland at Bulldog Stadium the contest was called with 8:18 remaining because of lightning in the area. The squads tried to wait out the storm, waiting for almost an hour for clear skies, but the storm persisted and forced the decision to call the game.

In order for a game to become official in soccer the teams must have played at least 75 minutes, which was the case in this instance.

Concordia (10-7, 0-3 GPAC) was playing an even game with the Warriors, keeping pace in the shot department. Midland finished the game with 11 shots compared to eight for the Bulldogs.

What proved to be the game winning goal was scored during the 57th minute by Natasha Heil for Midland.

Bulldog goalie Sara Webb had her hands full on the road against the Red Raiders of Northwestern on Saturday. Webb finished with nine saves, but faced 25 shots on the afternoon. The Bulldogs were able to fire just eight shots during the game.

The next action for Concordia comes on Wednesday as the Bulldogs travel down the interstate to take on Nebraska Wesleyan in Lincoln, Neb., at 6 p.m.
