Drake Cruises Past Idaho To Remain Undefeated At Nugget Classic

RENO, NEV. -- The Idaho Vandals (1-5) began with a quick 3-point field goal to open play, but the Drake Bulldogs (4-2) responded with a 9-0 run to set up a frenetic pace in the final of three games at the Nugget Classic in Reno, Nev. That pace would prove to be too much for the Vandals as Drake would ride a big second half to a 17-point win, 83-66.

Drake found itself with a 13-9 lead at the initial media break of the first quarter thanks to cutting layups and sharp shooting from behind the arc.
