Football Falls To Marist In Defensive Battle, 7-0

Drake football was finally back in action for the first time in three weeks Saturday in Poughkeepsie, NY on the campus of Marist College. The game was the first for head coach Todd Stepsis' Bulldogs in three weeks following a break due to COVID protocol and a bye. The Bulldogs (2-6, 1-4 PFL) showed signs of rust on the offensive side at times and ultimately fell to Marist (4-4, 4-2 PFL) in a tight, defensive contest 7-0.
