Drake women’s basketball is back in Des Moines for its 2018 home-opener after taking two dubs on the road against Nebraska and Western Illinois this past weekend giving the Bulldogs an early 2-0 lead in the Missouri Valley Conference (MVC). After playing Dubuque (W 117-33) and Pittsburgh State (W 92-55) in preseason exhibition games, they are ready to bring the energy back to the Knapp Center with an end goal of getting a third consecutive MVC champion title.
“We’re all really excited to be in the Knapp, it’s the best place to play,” forward Sara Rhine said.
