The Bark

What a way to close out the season (for now) for the Drake men's basketball team. We break down their historic tournament run here (1:20) while prepping you for the women's tournament this weekend (12:40). The softball team continues their struggling ways as they close out the non-conference schedule (22:39).

It was a tough way to end the season for the Drake men's basketball team, who was blown out by Northern Iowa in the final game of the regular season to drop them to the 8-seed in the MVC tournament (12:58). The women's team fared a lot better, winning 2 key games to move them into half a game behind Missouri State for the top spot in the standings (1:38). The softball team struggled, losing all 5 games in their weekend matches (23:38).

Close games, but wins all around! We talk about the Drake women's basketball team's two wins at home, and the send-off to one of the best senior classes this program has seen (2:40). The men's side had an OT win at home, but a close road loss (14:52). The men's golf team is in the midst of a good meet (22:12), and softball struggled while down a pitcher (23:57).

This week, both teams lost extremely hard-fought conference games. The Drake women's basketball team defeated Southern Illinois but lost to ranked Missouri State at home, their first home loss since February 1 of last year against Missouri State (3:38). The men's team beat Bradley convincingly, but lost a well-played game on the road to Northern Iowa (16:22).

Both teams are in the thick of the Missouri Valley Conference schedule. The Drake women's basketball team had a couple of tough road games this weekend, winning in OT over Illinois State and losing by 1 point to Bradley (1:37). The men's team blew out Evansville on the road, but played Missouri State extremely close before winning at home (14:36).

Both basketball teams extend their home winning streaks this week (no basketball team has lost in the Knapp Center since February 1). The women's team won by a combined total of 100 points over 2 opponents this weekend (2:00), while the men's team won their home match up vs Illinois State, but struggle vs Southern Illinois (12:38). 

Both women's and men's basketball teams experience a mix of success and failures over the last few weeks, as the women's team loses on a buzzer beater to Missouri State (00:57) and the men's team wins a couple home games to begin conference play, but loses a couple on the road as well (11:14).
