The Drake Bulldogs won their first NCAA tournament game in over 50 years Thursday with a 67-57 victory over the Missouri Tigers.
Drake controlled the game for most of the night, with Missouri cutting the lead to one with 4:28 to go before the Bulldogs made their final run to pull away. Bennett Stirtz led the way for Drake with 21 points, including an absurd one-legged three-pointer. He went 8-for-11 from the field and a perfect 3-for-3 from three.
