Drew Streicher on First Take

Drew Streicher was the next player to be interviewed on ESPN 2's First Take. Along with a phone interview with Drake's Klayton Korver, both players were asked similar questions concerning their previous games, what they are looking forward to in Saturday's bracketbuster and their career thus far, in basketball.

Preview for Saturday's game(s)

The girls play their Detroit(4-20, 1-12) this Saturday at noon for their fourth to last game of the season. They lost their last two games against UWisconsin-Green Bay and Wright State (last night's late in the second half loss 65-60). The team is 16-9 for the season, 6-8 in the Horizon League (putting them in seventh place).

The men, of course, are taking on the Drake Bulldogs for the Bracketbuster game at
5 p.m. on ESPN 2. The "battle of the bulldogs" is what the game has been called by many sports spectators. Drake and Butler have also been compared very similarly, they are both ranked mid-majors with similar game plans. The game will be without a doubt, a challenge. We are just lucky that we have home court advantage.
