Drake's athletic program has been embarrassed and otherwise kicked around quite a bit lately,
so it's good to know that the Bulldogs' women's basketball team ended a 14-game losing streak to Iowa with an 81-76 victory today at the Knapp Center in Des Moines.
It's comforting to me that the university has at least one team playing at the major-college level.
Congratulations to coach Jennie Baranczyk and her players.
The university and its fans needed that.
