TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (AP) — Brenni Rose made four 3-pointers and scored 14 points and No. 25 Drake defeated Indiana State 64-45 on Friday night in the Bulldogs’ first game since making it into the Top 25 for the first time in over 16 years.

Becca Jonas added 10 points and a team-high seven rebounds and Becca Hittner also scored 10 points for the Bulldogs (21-4, 14-0 Missouri Valley), whose last poll appearance came on Dec. 3, 2001. Lizzy Wendell, the MVC’s top scorer at 21.7 points per game, scored only five on 2-of-7 shooting in 23 minutes and had her nation-best streak of at least 10 points end at 102 games.

Rhagen Smith led the Sycamores (12-12, 6-7) with 11 points and seven rebounds. Indiana State, the MVC’s top defensive team at 56.3 points a game, kept the score down against the Bulldogs, the league’s top offensive team at 83.8. But Drake still shot 47 percent and was 10 of 19 from the arc. Indiana State shot 30 percent and 5 of 18 from 3-point range. The teams combined for 40 turnovers.

The Bulldogs scored the game’s first 10 points and never trailed. They outscored the Sycamores 20-9 to break the game open in the third quarter, finishing the period with a 52-31 lead. Drake won its 15th straight game, one away from tying the program record.

The Exira-EHK Spartans blew open a close game with a huge third quarter in a 72-39 win over Boyer Valley in a girls 1A regional semifinal on Friday night.  The Spartans had edged away a little bit at the end of the second quarter and led 36-22 at halftime but the third quarter put it away as they outscored the Bulldogs 29-11 in the quarter. Head Coach Tom Petersen talked about that spark the Spartans had in the second half.

Sophia Peppers had a monster night for the Spartans with 37 points, 13 rebounds, and 4 steals. Coach Petersen spoke about the great play of the Junior.

Peppers after the game talked about her mindset on the night.

The Spartans improved to 22-1 on the season and now prepare for a regional final on Monday with a chance to head to the state tournament.  Peppers talked about the mindset heading into that big game.

The Spartans will face Akron-Westfield in Mapleton at 7:00pm and we’ll have the game on KJAN. Boyer Valley was led in the loss by Cathryn Klein with 10 points and their season ends with an 18-5 record.
