DES MOINES, IowaDaniel Abreu played the role of late-game hero from the Knapp Center on Saturday night as he drained the game-winning three-pointer with :23 seconds left to lift Drake (3-0) over Florida Gulf Coast (0-4).

FGCU held the ball for one last shot to either force overtime or win the game, but Dallion Johnson missed a jumper as the horn sounded and Bennett Stirtz secured the rebound to keep Drake's home winning streak alive and improve the mark to 24-straight.
