INTRAMURALS
We wrapped up our first session of sports, crowning champions in Pickleball, Basketball, Soccer, Volleyball, 3 Point Shootout and NFL Pick Ems'.
Jack Byassee and Lillian Luangsomkham both represented Drake in the annual 3 Point Shootout held at the University of Iowa this year. Jack then went on to win against shooters from Iowa, Iowa State, and UNI to take his crown back to Drake!
Blake Ellingson was our 1st place winner in our first-ever NFL Regular Season Pick Em'. Blake received a Drake Water bottle, an Intramural Champ shirt, and an NFL mini helmet of his choice. After a successful season, we look forward to it again in the future.
We look forward to hosting a variety of sports this semester, including Basketball, Indoor and Unified Soccer, Pickleball and Bags, Water Polo, and single day tournaments. Players are encouraged to download the Drake Rec App or register through IM Leagues / Drake to create or join a team for the upcoming seasons.
