Ingle leads Women’s Basketball to MVC Championship, Bulldogs secure NCAA Tournament berth

ONLINE EXCLUSIVE BY ADAM ROGAN

For the first time in nearly a decade, Drake Women’s Basketball is heading to the NCAA Tournament — and a lot of that is thanks to senior guard Caitlin Ingle.

Facing the University of Northern Iowa Panthers in the Missouri Valley Conference Championship on March 12, Drake overcame its third straight underwhelming first half to secure the MVC title in overtime by a score of 74-69.

Although the fourth quarter featured four ties and seven lead changes, the intensity truly amped up in the final minute and a half.
