ST. LOUIS, Mo. - Behind a combined 45 points from Joseph Yesufu and Tremell Murphy, the Drake University men's basketball team defeated Missouri State 71-69 to advance to Sunday's championship game of the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament.
Yesufu finished with 25 points, none bigger than his drive to the basket with two seconds left to win the game and send Drake to the title game for the second time in program history.
"Coach knew Joe had it going and gave him the green light," Tremell Murphy said of the final play.
