The Men’s Basketball team couldn’t break its cold streak on the road this week. Drake (6-20, 1-13 MVC) met Southern Illinois (20-7, 9-5 MVC) on Saturday and the young Bulldogs team was saddled with their fourth consecutive loss by a score of 75-60.
“We have 10 freshmen and sophomores and there is still a couple pieces to add to get to where we want to go,” head coach Ray Giacoletti said. “It’s an everyday process in building a young team, in a senior dominant league.”
A 12-10 lead eight minutes into the game gave Drake reason for optimism.
