Lawmakers jump on Drake bandwagon too

January 31, 2008 By admin

It seems everyone is rallying around the Drake Men’s Basketball team. The Bulldogs extended their winning streak with a victory over Creighton last night. The achievement was recognized in the Iowa House today by Urbandale Republican Scott Raecker.

Raecker said Drake athletes were recognized at the game for their academic achievements. Seventy percent have three point grade averages or better, and the men’s basketball team academic performance is even higher.

Raecker called the Bulldogs "Iowa’s new favorite team." The Drake men have scored victories over ISU, Iowa and UNI this season.
