Track and Field

The Bulldog women's relays shined at the Drake Relays while headlining a restructured week of competition for Concordia Track & Field. A new school record was set as part of the action in Des Moines, Iowa.

Matthew Boyer and Jenna Esch were honored by the GPAC for their personal best performances at the Dutcher Classic. Boyer ranks No. 1 in the GPAC in the javelin while Esch paces the conference in the 400 meters.

It will be an eventful week as the 2024 GPAC Outdoor Track & Field Championships loom in the background. Concordia will be represented this week at three separate meets, including the Drake Relays.

A school record from Matthew Boyer, 11 event titles and strong heptathlon marks from the likes of Amy Richert and Josi Noble highlighted the efforts of Concordia Track & Field at the Dutcher Classic hosted by Doane.

On the second day of the Dutcher Classic, Matthew Boyer turned heads with a program record toss in the javelin. The Bulldogs will continue action at Doane on Saturday.

As the home stretch of the 2024 outdoor season beckons, Concordia Track & Field looks ahead to the Jim Dutcher Memorial Classic. The Bulldogs enter the meet carrying top 15 national rankings.

Another 17-foot vault has yielded another GPAC Athlete of the Week award for Zach Zohner. The conference recognized Zohner on April 17 following his performance at the USD Challenge.

Concordia won five event titles while the likes of Matthew Boyer and Zach Zohner improved upon impressive auto marks at the South Dakota Challenge. The Bulldogs went up against NCAA DI foes USD and SDSU.

The third full week of the outdoor season will take members of the Concordia Track & Field program to Vermillion, S.D., for the South Dakota Challenge. The Bulldogs will look to add to their 12 NAIA auto marks.

Courtesy of their performances at the Concordia Invite, Adrianna Rodencal and Chris Wren were named GPAC Athletes of the Week on April 10. Both athletes rank among the top four nationally in an event.
