Omaha resident, Mike Vance, dominated the Lean Horse 100 mile race this past weekend. Mike, 47, dominated the field beating the next fastest runner by over 2 hours. Mike’s time was only 2 minutes off of the course record, his overall time was 15:25:00.00

Mike is one of the fastest runners around, not to mention he is also in the “master” age category. Mike won the 2009 Omaha Marathon and is looking to repeat in 2010. He also has a few Ironman’s under his belt…

Way to go Mike! Keep up the good work!

Bulldog men eighth, women 12th in NAIA Preseason Coaches’ Poll

Site Admin — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 11:39:35 +0000

The Concordia University cross country squads are ranked in the top 15 of the NAIA Preseason Coaches’ Polls which were released Wednesday. The men’s squad is ranked eighth, while the women’s squad is 12th to begin the year.

On the men’s side, Concordia is the only GPAC school that is ranked in the preseason poll. The Concordia men won the conference championship and earned a National Runner-up finish a year ago. Defending National Champion Malone University (Ohio) has been picked as the No. 1 team in the poll after receiving 15 of the possible 20 first place votes. This is the fourth year in a row Malone University has been awarded with the preseason No. 1 ranking.

Only two GPAC schools are ranked in the top 25 on the women’s side. Morningside College joins Concordia in the preseason poll. The Mustangs are ranked 19th. Biola University (Calif.) received the top ranking with 15 of the possible 21 first place votes. Biola was the National Runner-up last year.

Concordia looks to keep rolling in 2010 following another impressive year in 2009. Both squads return several key runners, but Head Coach Kregg Einspahr knows there is still much work to be done.

“Both teams are capable and have the potential of finishing at the national level this year as high as they are currently rated,” remarked Einspahr. “However, most of this is simply conjecture and speculation at this point. We will have to prove in competition over the next two months that we are worthy of such a high ranking.”

The Bulldogs open the year by hosting the Concordia Invite on September 4.
