CHICAGO, Ill. – The Drake University golf team finished the first day of the Missouri Valley Championship in ninth place on Sunday at the Harborside International Golf Center.
"We had some really good stretches of golf today, but had a few too many big holes which held us back from breaking through," said Drake head coach Rachael Pruett.
The Bulldogs recorded a score of 317 and are 10 strokes back from fourth place and host Loyola (307). Two-time defending champion Wichita State leads the 10-team field with a 297 and holds a two-stroke advantage over second place Bradley (299).
