Men’s Basketball Hosts Chicago State Sunday Afternoon

The Drake men's basketball team aims to keep its historic start to the season rolling Sunday afternoon when it hosts Chicago State at the Knapp Center. Tipoff is set for 2 p.m. with the contest being broadcast on ESPN+.

Drake returns home, where it has won 22-straight games against non-conference competition, after a 75-57 win at South Dakota Friday evening.

The win improved the Bulldogs to 7-0, to tie for the second-best start in program history and best since 1979-80. Only the 1970-71 team started a season better with its 8-0 record. Additionally, the Bulldogs are one of only four teams in the nation that are 7-0 or better this season.
