DES MOINES, Iowa – The Drake University softball team welcomes the Bradley Braves to Ron Buel Field this weekend for its final regular season series of 2016. Drake and Bradley will play a doubleheader Saturday starting at noon with the series finale Sunday at noon.
The three-game series against Braves has major implications at stake for the Bulldogs with a share of the Missouri Valley Conference regular season title still up for grabs and seeding for next week's MVC Tournament in Carbondale, Ill. still to be determined. The winner of the three-day, single elimination, MVC Tournament earns the league's automatic berth to the 2016 NCAA Tournament.
