The spotlight will shine brighter this week at Bulldog Stadium as the Bulldogs welcome No. 10 Morningside to Seward. Concordia looks to build upon its 45-7 win over Waldorf in week one.
DJ McGarvie was named the GPAC Offensive Player of the Week after throwing for three touchdowns and running for another in the 45-7 win over Waldorf. McGarvie has earned his fourth career GPAC weekly honor.
