D.J. Wilkins connected on a three pointer with 2.9 seconds remaining to rescue Drake in an 70-68 win over Indiana State in Des Moines. It was a game the Bulldogs led by 18 at halftime.

That’s Drake coach Darian DeVries. It was the second straight home game in which the Bulldogs squandered a double digit halftime lead.

DeVries says they need to find a way to be more consistent.

The Bulldogs are 7-4 in Missouri Valley play and 16-6 overall.
