Bulldogs’ season ends in first round of NCAA Tournament

ONLINE EXCLUSIVE BY ADAM ROGAN

It’s finally over.

After 22 consecutive wins and a perfect conference season, Drake Women’s Basketball’s season ended at the hands of the Big 12’s Kansas State Wildcats in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

The final score was 67-54, as Drake’s high-powered offense was disrupted by the Wildcats’ defense.

It was the first time any Bulldog, including head coach Jennie Barancyzk, has appeared in the NCAA Tourney.

The NCAA Women’s Tournament isn’t centralized until the Sweet Sixteen, so 7th-seed Kansas State received a home-court advantage.
