Men’s Basketball closes out regular season on ninth loss: what’s next?

Five straight losing seasons. Nine consecutive losses. Back-to-back seven win regular seasons. There’s still the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament ahead, but for Drake Men’s Basketball (7-23, 5-13 MVC) to make a run, it might take a couple miracles.

The Bulldogs closed the regular season with a 82-74 home loss to Bradley University (12-19, 7-11 MVC). They never led throughout the game.

The loss dropped Drake to the 10th seed in the conference tournament for the second season in a row.

The Bulldogs will face Bradley in the first round of the tourney on March 2. A win would extend their season, and surpass 2015u201116’s win total.
