SEWARD, Neb. – After stinging the baseball all weekend in Mitchell, S.D., Concordia University, Nebraska Baseball All-American Jaidan Quinn earned recognition on Tuesday (April 29). The league office has tabbed Quinn as the GPAC/Hauff Mid-America Sports Player of the Week. Quinn has reeled in the weekly accolade for the second time this season. As a team, the Bulldogs have earned six GPAC weekly awards in 2025.

As part of 15th-ranked Concordia’s four-game sweep of Dakota Wesleyan, Quinn batted .615 (8-for-13) with 11 runs scored, two doubles, five home runs and 12 RBIs. He also walked three times and was hit by a pitch while posting a .667 on-base percentage (and 1.923 slugging percentage) for the series. On the season, Quinn is hitting .373 with 58 runs, 11 doubles, 23 home runs, 68 RBIs, a .576 on-base percentage and .970 slugging percentage. The star third baseman leads the GPAC in home runs (tied with teammate Brad Hallock), on-base percentage and slugging percentage.

Quinn is a leading candidate to be named GPAC Player of the Year for a second-straight season. Quinn has run his program record career home run total to 96. Over 219 career collegiate games, the Bonner Springs, Kan., native has slashed .363 BA / .529 OBP / .853 SLG and has totaled 250 hits and 273 RBIs.

The GPAC champion Bulldogs (37-9, 25-3 GPAC) are getting set to host a pod of the GPAC tournament beginning on Wednesday. More details about the tournament can be found HERE.
