The 2015 Great Plains Athletic Conference (GPAC) Postseason Men’s Soccer Tournament Championship Match was won by sixth seeded Concordia over top seed Hastings by the final of 1-0.

The lone goal was scored in the second half by Tyler Jensen at the 66 minute mark.

Concordia will advance, as the league’s only automatic representative, to the NAIA National Men’s Soccer National Championship Opening Round (on Saturday, November 21).  The GPAC is allotted one automatic berth because the conference is below 12 NAIA teams in the postseason (10 teams).  At-Large berths will be awarded based on the NAIA Modified RPI rating and announced this weekend.

Sixteen teams will advance to the NAIA Men’s Soccer National Championship Final Site in Delray Beach, Florida, November 30 – December 5, 2015, at the Seacrest Soccer Complex.
