When the NCAA Tournament returns to Des Moines in 2019 Drake University will serve as the host school. Iowa State was the host in 2016 the first time Wells Fargo Arena hosted a regional in 2016.
(That’s Drake Athletic Director Sandy Hatfield Clubb).
Serving as host means Drake could not be assigned the Des Moines regional if the Bulldogs make the tournament but there still could be a local flavor.
Hatfield Clubb says it will be a great opportunity to showcase the city as well as her school.
She says the attention the NCAA Tournament receives will benefit the entire area.

Iowa defensive tackle Faith Ekakitie was the first pick of the Canadian Football League Draft. The native of Ontario was take by the Winnipeg Blue Bombers after a senior season with the Hawkeyes in which he registered 39 tackles. He was invited to NFL mini-camps with the Colts and Giants but decided to sign a two-year contract with Winnipeg.
Ekakitie feels his best football is ahead of him. He did not even start playing the game until his sophomore year in high school.

MIAMI (AP) — Cardinals ace Carlos Martinez drove in four runs, compensating for the two homers he gave up to Marcell Ozuna and leading St. Louis over the Miami Marlins 9-4 Monday night for their season-best fourth straight win.
Martinez (2-3) came into the game hitless this year. He hit a two-out, three-run double off Adam Conley in the second inning and singled home a run in the fourth. Martinez struck out seven in six innings. Miguel Socolovich pitched three innings to earn his first career save.
Miami’s Giancarlo Stanton hit his 11th homer in the ninth, his third shot in two days. Ozuna also has 11 homers. Matt Carpenter had a two-run triple for the Cardinals. Teammate Magneuris Sierra, recalled Sunday from Single-A Palm Beach, contributed two hits and scored twice.
Marlins manager Don Mattingly was ejected for arguing balls and strikes after Martinez struck out the side in the second. Conley (2-3) allowed seven runs in 3 2/3 innings.
