Drake Rides Early Run to 80-56 Win

PEORIA, IL – Making her first career start, Bradley sophomore forward Isis Fitch scored a career-best 16 points and senior guard Tatum Koenig shared game-high honors with 19 points, but Drake (11-8, 3-5 MVC) rode a 32-4 surge from midway in the first quarter through the middle of the second to an 80-56 Missouri Valley Conference Women's Basketball win Thursday night at Renaissance Coliseum.

In the season's first rematch of the 2021 Hoops in the Heartland MVC Women's Basketball Championship title game won by the Braves, Bradley outscored the Bulldogs, 52-48, for 29 minutes Thursday.
