INTERSTATE AVE PORTLAND, O R 97217 (503)285-5307 DRWARD@TELEPORT.COM WWW.DRWARDINTERSTATEDENTAL.COM Westmont College played host to then No. 1 ranked and defending national champion Concordia. In a performance showing that their prior season’s cham pionship was no fluke, the Cavaliers again walked away with the W— their national #1 ranking intact. Although the Cava liers finally saw their 29 match win ning streak put to an end by the College o f Idaho on Saturday, the Cavaliers are still the NAIA team to beat. One of the more important as pects of moving to NCAA Division II is the larger scale of their new conference. Rather than just com pete with teams from the states of Oregon, W ashington and Idaho, Concordia will be regular competi tors with British Columbia’s Simon Frasier University, the University of Alaska Fairbanks and the Univer sity of Alaska Anchorage among others. For Cavaliers goalkeeper Olivia Brock It will be “exciting to go even further...to play.” Concordia’s move up also brings with it the prospect of more exciting n o n -co n feren ce so ccer gam es against Division 1 cross town rivals such as Portland State and the Uni versity of Portland. While the Cava liers played these schools in the past, they did not count towards either team s’ standings, and accord ing to Concordia’s Sports Informa tion Director Jason Dormeyer, would hurt an NCAA team ’s strength of schedule if not deemed an exhibi tion game. The disadvantage to schedule strength will be lessened, how ever, with the Cavaliers ascent to D ivision II. W ith that, D orm eyer says Concordia hopes to continue to develop in-state rivalries, par ticularly with U o f P as their cam pus is only a few m iles from Concordia. With their current record, the Cavaliers are making their trek to wards a second consecutive title look easy. But if you look a little closer at their opponents you will see that the non-conference games the Cavaliers scheduled this sea son have been no cake walk. The Cavaliers own wins over 3 teams ranked in the top 25 nati° naiiy as well as a 1 -1 draw with the #5 ranked Vanguard University. With the Cavaliers so used to winning, and their 2014 campaign off to a remarkable start, one can’t help but wonder if the Cavaliers will go on to repeat as national champi ons again. Although Landy says his play ers “aren’t really thinking about that right now,” he says they are fo cused on “getting better from game to game.” How will the Cavaliers will fare against the stiffer com petition brought to the table by the Great Northwest Athletic Conference? Landy wagers that the competition will be tougher on a consistent ba sis, but thinks that as long as the Cavaliers bring their A game they will be competitive. The Cavaliers will next be in ac tion at their stadium, Tuominen Yard, on Friday, Oct. 10 at 4 p.m. against cross town rival Warner Pacific. On Twitter?
