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.

Life doesn’t have to be a series o f emergencies anymore
Dr. Billy R. Flowers
It seems that I am always
sick. I do what my doctor says
but if anything my colds and flu at
tacks are getting worse. What do you
think?
: C onstant colds and in flu
enza indicate that the immune
system (and the body in general) is
highly stressed. Did you know that
recently leading scientists have dis
covered that the entire immune system
is an out-growth of the nervous sys
tem? If you nervous system is stressed
and irritated, the immune system cannot
work properly either. People who have
regular Chiropractic checkups report that
they get fewer colds and influenza. They
keep the stress off their nervous sys
tems. Keeping irritation off the nervous
system also helps you avoid morning
backache and head-aches and allows
you to cope with stress better. And you’d
be amazed at the energy you have with
preventive Chiropractic checkups. If
you’d like to trade in your colds for
a bounce in your step, call us for an
appointm ent today. It could be the
healthiest call you have ever made.
Isn’t time you stepped up to C hiro
