DES MOINES, Iowa – The Drake University volleyball team gets back to conference play with a pair of road games this weekend, starting at Illinois State Friday, Nov. 2 at 7 p.m.
The Bulldogs then make the trip to Peoria, Ill. for a 7 p.m. match against Bradley Saturday, Nov. 3. Friday's match will be broadcast on ESPN3.
Drake (17-10, 5-7 MVC) went 1-2 this past weekend after 3-0 sweeps at the hands of MVC rivals Loyola and Valparaiso. Each of the three sets against Loyola were won by just two points, but Drake couldn't quite pull ahead down the stretch despite timely runs in all three.
