DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) Saturday night's season-opening contest between Drake and Division II William Jewell was canceled due to severe weather and will not be rescheduled.
Braeden Hartwig had a 6-yard touchdown run on Drake's first possession and the Bulldogs led 7-0 with 7:18 remaining in the first quarter when lightning caused the initial delay. The score and statistics from the game won't be counted and will be recorded as a no contest.
Fans who purchased tickets to the game may redeem their ticket stub at the Drake athletics ticket office for another game ticket this season.
