Men’s Basketball Adds Nov. 14 Game With South Dakota

The Drake University men's basketball team has added a Nov. 14 game against South Dakota to its 2021-22 home schedule.

The Bulldogs host the Coyotes in the Knapp Center after the two teams faced each other twice last year. Drake earned a 69-53 win Manhattan, Kan., to win the Little Apple Classic and then defeated USD, 75-57, in Vermillion, S.D. to complete the season sweep.

The meeting will be the 15th in the series history with Drake owning an 11-3 record in the previous meetings and an 8-1 home record.

Drake enters its non-conference season after earning the program's first NCAA berth in 13 seasons last season and compiling a 26-5 record to earn its third-consecutive 20-win season.
