Men’s basketball in three-way tie for first in MVC

By DRAKE LOHSE

All week long, the Bulldogs have been locked in a dance with the top spot in the MVC Conference.

It started Tuesday night. Drake hosted Bradley at the Knapp Center, where the Bulldogs have posted a 12-2 record on the season. Their three-game winning streak, hot off the loss to Loyola back on Feb. 5, helped propel them to a three-way tie for No. 1 in the Missouri Valley with Loyola and Missouri State.

Bradley wasn’t intimidated and refused to go down easy. The Braves spread the ball at a torpedo’s pace, and had Drake on their heels early.
