After a bye in the middle of this week, the Bulldogs will sprint to the finish line while playing their final three games of the regular season. Up next is Saturday's trip to Briar Cliff.

It was absolute cinema, but the finish resulted in extreme heartache for the Bulldogs. Visiting Morningside spoiled a festive atmosphere by outlasting Concordia in double OT, 123-115, on Saturday (Feb. 7).

Coach Limback called it a "gut check" after last week's disappointing result. The Bulldogs responded by thumping rival Doane, 85-69, in Crete on Wednesday (Feb. 4) with the help of 28 points from Brooks Kissinger.

The urgency increases as the calendar flips to February, marking the final month of the regular season. The Bulldogs will play at Doane on Wednesday before hosting Morningside on Saturday.

The Bulldogs rallied back from 14 points down before ultimately enduring an agonizing overtime defeat at Waldorf. Brooks Kissinger, Dane Jacobsen and Logan Wilson paced Concordia offensively.

Coming off back-to-back home wins, the Bulldogs (15-7, 9-5 GPAC) will take advantage of a well-timed midweek bye. Action will resume on Saturday with a trip to Waldorf.

Concordia and Dordt traded blows in a shootout that went the way of the Bulldogs, 94-88, on Saturday (Jan. 24). Zac Kulus equaled a career high with 21 points and Hayden Frank splurged for 18 points off the bench.

In shaking off a tough previous week inside the GPAC, Concordia found the gear that made it a nationally ranked team earlier this season. Six Bulldogs scored in double figures in the 104-82 win over Midland.

A frustrating week resulted in Concordia falling back into a jumbled pack of teams in second through eighth place in the GPAC standings. The Bulldogs hope to rebound at home this week versus Midland and Dordt.
