2022 Concordia Women’s Soccer Schedule
SEWARD, Neb. – Bulldog Stadium will serve as the venue when Concordia University Women’s Soccer rings in the 2022 season. The program has announced a 2022 slate featuring 17 regular season games, beginning with the opener versus Southwestern College (Kan.) on Aug. 27. The slate will include eight home matches and the usual 12 GPAC league contests.
Head Coach Thomas Goines’ program is coming off a 2021 season that culminated with a 9-7-2 overall record, a sixth-place GPAC finish and a 1-0 loss to Hastings in the conference tournament quarterfinals. All-GPAC returners for 2022 include Grace Soenksen (first team), Allee Downing (honorable mention) and Kalie Ward (honorable mention).
Following the season opener versus Southwestern, nonconference play will continue with road games at Tabor College (Kan.), Graceland University (Iowa) and Benedictine College (Kan.). The Bulldogs will also host Bethany College (Kan.) on Sept. 13 to conclude the five-match nonconference run.
