DES MOINES, Iowa – Junior Kelly Kapp (Freeburg, Ill./Gibault Catholic) collected six hits and scored four runs, but Drake hit four home runs during a doubleheader sweep of the Braves as the Bulldogs topped Bradley 8-6 and 10-4 Saturday afternoon at Ron Buel Field.
Bradley (18-28 overall, 12-13 MVC) led after the top of the third in both contests, but defending Missouri Valley Conference regular-season champion Drake (28-23 overall, 16-8 MVC) rallied to pull out the victory in both games.
Kapp pushed her team-best batting average to .410, going 6-for-7 with a double, triple, two stolen bases and four runs scored to highlight the day offensively for the Braves, who are now tied for fifth in the MVC standings with Evansville at 12-13.
