Five days ago, Concordia claimed the MIAC Outdoor Meet championship after also winning the indoor title, and now head coach Marv Roeske has also claimed the double as he was named the MIAC Outdoor Coach of the Year to go with his indoor award.
For the second time in program history, the Concordia women's track program doubled down on MIAC championships, with the previous double dip coming in 1999. The Cobbers claimed the conference outdoor women's crown this past weekend, backing up an MIAC indoor title in late February.
Concordia pulled off the track & field season double as they cruised to the team title at the MIAC Outdoor Championship Meet at St. Olaf less than three months after earning the crown at the conference indoor meet at Carleton.
Concordia is poised for another banner finish at the MIAC Outdoor Meet as they scored 84 team points on Friday and hold a 47-point lead in the team standings heading into the final day of competition.
Concordia traveled to Iowa and Jamestown for their annual 3-meet, many miles weekend. The Cobbers had their distance medley relay and sprint hurdle relay teams break 20-year-old school records at the Drake Relays in Iowa.
The Cobbers went across the Red River and competed at the annual NDSU Spring Classic and turned in several Top 5 finishes at a meet that featured NCAA Division I and II squads.
Concordia reaped the rewards for winning its first MIAC Indoor Championship since 1999 by earning two of the four major postseason awards. Head Coach Marv Roeske was named the MIAC Indoor Coach of the Year and first-year multi-sport athlete Lauren Pearson (Cameron, Wis.) earned Rookie of the Year honors.
Concordia ended its 27-year championship drought by using the strength of its team to capture its fourth MIAC Indoor Championship Meet title in program history. The Cobbers only had three event wins over the two days but used a boat load of podium finishes to tie for the most indoor championships of any school currently in the conference.
Londyn Ames, Josie Brown, Kyla Nygaard and Kelyn Henry-Perlich won the distance medley relay and Emily Rengo broke the school record in the 55-meter dash on the first full day of the MIAC Indoor Championship Meet.
The quartet of Josie Brown, Emily Rengo, Emma Warner and Kyla Nygaard broke the school record in the 4x400-meter relay to lead Concordia at the UND Tune-Up.
Londyn Ames' record-impressive run in the 1000 meters highlighted another weekend of successful storylines for the Cobbers as they move closer to the MIAC Championship Meet.
Senior Kyla Nygaard led a bonanza of impressive finishes for Concordia at the 2-day NDSU Bison Open. Nygaard pulled off the rare event win in the meet that was dominated by NCAA Division I and II athletes. And to make her performance even better, Nygaard broke a school record in the process.
Concordia went the extra mile in its first meet of 2026. The Cobbers earned four event wins and posted eight Top 3 finishes at the 86th annual Cobber Alumni Open.
