Concordia and Doane will meet on the final day (Nov. 3) of the 2026 regular season. Regardless of the outcome, the Bulldogs are locked into second place in the GPAC standings.

In a battle between NAIA top 20 teams, No. 18 Dordt got the best of No. 3 Concordia. A rare home loss occurred despite the Bulldogs posting a higher hitting percentage.

No. 3 Concordia put together one of its best all-around performances of the season and swiftly defeated Hastings in a sweep on Wednesday (Oct. 28). The Bulldogs hit .315 and owned an 11-2 blocking advantage.

The stretch run of the regular season has arrived. This week's action puts the Bulldogs up against Hastings and No. 18 Dordt. Concordia has won 45 of its past 48 GPAC regular season matches.

Different Bulldogs took turns rising to the occasion on Saturday (Oct. 24) as No. 3 Concordia defeated No. 14 Midland in four sets. Myla Emery landed five aces and Bella Hedke produced 10 kills and four blocks.

A pair of wins last week pushed Concordia to the 20-win mark. The third-ranked Bulldogs will have a bye in the middle of this week before heading to No. 14 Midland on Saturday.

A freshman from Minden, Neb., Myla Emery earned GPAC Setter of the Week honors after helping the third-ranked Bulldogs to conference wins over Mount Marty and College of Saint Mary.

In the second go-round this season with in-state rival CSM, No. 3 Concordia leaned upon its blocking and finished emphatically. Freshman Samantha Kimbell produced 13 kills in the four-set win.

A workmanlike effort got the job done in three sets on Wednesday (Oct. 14) as third-ranked Concordia hosted its annual pink match. Makenna Starkey starred in the middle and Kyla Griess served bullets.

The weekend included a milestone victory and this season's first GPAC loss. The third-ranked Bulldogs will look to respond in rematches with Mount Marty and College of Saint Mary.
