GPAC Release

SEWARD, Neb. – The honor roll for Concordia University, Nebraska Track & Field includes 41 GPAC All-Conference award winners as a result of performances at the 2026 GPAC Indoor Track & Field Championships hosted by Dordt. All-conference accolades went to individuals who placed top eight and relays that placed top three at the GPAC meet.

Head Coach Matt Beisel’s squads earned GPAC indoor placements of third for both men and women. As announced on Wednesday, the Bulldogs will travel 21 athletes to Gainesville, Fla., for the 2026 NAIA Indoor Track & Field National Championships.

The all-conference list for Concordia includes individual GPAC champions in Jonny Jurchen (racewalk), Adysen McCarter (triple jump) and Adrianna Rodencal (60-meter hurdles). Additionally, the Bulldog men’s 4x800-meter relay earned a GPAC title. The 4x8 was made up of Keith Siek, Trenton Kumm, Lucas Corwin and Justin Sherman. Of Concordia’s 40 all-conference athletes, ten earned All-GPAC medals in multiple events. McCarter and Rodencal pulled in three All-GPAC honors. Notably, Nathan Baldwin placed third in both throwing events and Avery Eaves was the conference runner up in the 60 and 200 meters.

Two Bulldogs broke GPAC indoor meet records last week. Rodencal eclipsed her own conference record by running 8.42 in the prelims of the 60 hurdles. Jurchen also bested a record he already held by clocking in at 12:43.38 in the 3,000-meter racewalk.
