Drake Women’s Basketball will advance to the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament semifinals with its 64-40 win over the Illinois State Redbirds on the afternoon of March 10.
It was the Bulldogs’ 20th straight win and keeps them perfect in the MVC this season.
The Bulldogs, ranked 20th in the nation and first in the MVC, struggled offensively in the first two quarters. Despite earning some good looks — ISU offering open shots outside of its 2-3 zone — the Bulldogs couldn’t get them to fall.
