DES MOINES, Iowa -- Redshirt sophomore goalkeeper Luke Anderson has been tabbed as the Missouri Valley Conference's Defensive Player of the Week following a string of stingy play between the posts.
Anderson has been a fixture in net as the Bulldogs have recorded three-straight clean sheets and three-straight victories, most recently with a 1-0 win over Bradley in the team's conference opener.
"We are delighted for Luke to be recognized as he turned in some great performances this last week," said Drake head coach Gareth Smith. "He has made crucial saves at key moments in these past three games, especially the PK save against Bradley on Saturday.
