In the second meeting in less than a week between Drake and the Missouri State Bears, the Bulldogs were unable to bring home the comeback win in the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament in St. Louis (i.e. Arch Madness). Drake fell to the Bears 67-69 at the Scottrade Center on Thursday night, sealing their postseason fates and ending the season for the Bulldogs.
The Bulldogs put forth a resounding effort against the Bears, which was strikingly similar to their last meeting, a 61-52 come-from-behind, home win for Missouri State. This time though, the Bulldogs fell behind in the first half.
