Bethany Fuchs and Lina Kirst teamed up on the golden goal as Concordia defeated in-state rival Bellevue for the first time since 2015. The Bulldogs moved to 3-2 heading into GPAC play.
The Bulldogs have an eye on finishing nonconference play strong as they head to Bellevue on Wednesday. Concordia will then welcome Mount Marty to Seward on Saturday for a 1 p.m. kickoff.
A goal apiece from Mikeila Martinez and Anisa Lewis spurred Concordia to a come-from-behind win over Southwestern on Saturday (Sept. 11). The Bulldogs effectively avenged one of their losses from the spring.

Back in April, Concordia Women's Soccer made a memorable GPAC tournament championship run behind the likes of keeper Lindsey Carley. The Bulldogs finished at 11-6-2 overall.
Factors such as team chemistry, mentality and confidence led the Bulldogs back near the top of the GPAC standings this fall. Concordia will head into the spring believing it can make a run.
After a long wait, many safety protocols and a head coaching change, the 2020 Concordia Women’s Soccer season is right around the corner.
Even with a diploma in hand, Lindsey Carley decided she wanted to see out her final season of collegiate eligibility. The accomplished goalkeeper will be back to help lead the 2020 Bulldogs.
Faith and family resonate to this day for Jennifer (Davis) Schwartz, the all-time leading goal scorer in women's soccer history. What she remembers most fondly about her Bulldog days are the relationships with teammates.
