DES MOINES, Iowa – Drake softball lost their second game in as many days this evening when the Iowa Hawkeyes (26-15, 7-4) came to town. The Bulldogs (11-24, 4-9) displayed flashes both at the plate and in the dish but could not hold on to an early lead as Iowa left Des Moines with a 5-2 win.
The Hawkeyes scored the game's first run after a scoreless opening frame when Brylee Klosterman doubled courtesy runner Haley Downe home.
An inning later, the heart of Drake's lineup came through to give the Bulldogs their only lead of the game.
