The Drake women are at home tonight (Friday night) against Missouri Valley newcomer Belmont. The Bulldogs opened conference play by splitting a pair of road games at Illinois State and Bradley. Drake coach Allison Pohlman.

Drake announced this week that senior guard Megan Meyer will be lost for the season with an ACL injury. That puts more pressure on top scorers Maggie Bair and Grace Berg.

After tonight, the Bulldogs will host another Valley newcomer in Murray State on Sunday.
