Bulldogs Downed by No. 12 Cyclones Despite Explosive Third Quarter Output - Drake University Athletics

DES MOINES, Iowa – A spirited second half showed what was possible when things are clicking for the Drake women's basketball team. It just wasn't enough against a team as loaded as Iowa State.

The 12th-ranked Cyclones put the Bulldogs into an early hole with a torrid start and went on to an 87-60 victory at the Knapp Center on Thursday night to remain unbeaten.

Drake (1-3) got solid games from freshman Anna Becker and sophomore Maggie Taylor and outscored the Cyclones 42-35 in the second half with an efficient offense that produced a succession of layups.
