Men’s Basketball Earns Season Sweep of UNI With 77-69 Win

The Drake University men's basketball won its 21st game of the season and earned a season sweep of UNI with a 77-69 victory at the McLeod Center Wednesday night.

Drake's (21-2, 12-2 MVC) win was its third-straight in the series and first win in Cedar Falls since 2009 as Joseph Yesufu led the way with a career-high 20 points on 8-of-16 shooting with four three-pointers for the Bulldogs. Yesufu's performance came on the heels of his 18 points against the Panthers in last week's meeting between the two teams.

Garrett Sturtz also notched a career-best with 19 points, while Tremell Murphy added 14 points.
