A game full of runs and comebacks tipped in DePaul’s favor as they pulled out a tense 77-75 victory over Drake on Wednesday night.
It was a tight first half for the majority of the period. DePaul held small leads throughout the half and could not pull away from the Bulldogs. Drake then turned the game on its head as it went on a 16-0 run towards the close of the second half and swung the momentum in their favor. They led at halftime 38-29.
The second half, however, turned the game on its head. The two teams opened up from beyond the arc and it looked like it would benefit Drake more as they jumped out to a 15-point lead, but slowly DePaul chipped away at the lead.
