ST. CHARLES, MO. - Senior guard Jordann Plummer's last-second three-point attempt couldn't find the net and the Drake University women's basketball team dropped a 65-62 State Farm Missouri Valley Conference Tournament quarterfinal game to Creighton.

Plummer (St. Louis, Mo.) earned a final look at the basket after Creighton senior Megan Neuvirth missed a pair of free throws that would have put the Bluejays up five with six seconds remaining. Plummer grabbed the ball off the rebound by sophomore Rachael Hackbarth (Colgate, Wis.), dribbled the length of the floor and sent up a 20-footer from the left wing that missed wide.

"It looked like she got a good look at it," said head coach Amy Stephens, whose team fell to 15-15 overall.

Plummer tallied six points and six assists after coming off the bench in her final MVC Tournament appearance. Senior Monique' Jones (Lee's Summit, Mo.) closed her MVC Tournament ledger with a 13-point, eight-rebound effort. Hackbarth tallied 14 points and 12 boards for her second double-double of the season and third of her career. Junior Kristin Turk scored a team-high 16 points on six-of-12 shooting, including three-of-four from three-point range.

"I thought our team did a terrific job competing," Stephens added. "I'm really proud of the way we executed at times."

Drake outrebounded Creighton by 12, 43-31, and dropped just the fourth game of the season in which it outrebounding an opponent. Creighton made 11 three pointers, including six by Ally Jensen. The Bulldogs outshot Creighton 40.7 percent to 40.0 percent and dropped only the second game of the season in which they outshot their opponent. The previous game was an 87-78 setback at Missouri State on Feb. 7.

"We did a great job on the boards," Stephens said. "But Creighton just had one too many threes that ended up being too much of a dagger for us."

Drake led by four, 28-24, at halftime on the back of strong halves by Drake posts Monique' Jones (Lee's Summit, Mo.) and Rachael Hackbarth (Colgate, Wis.). Jones led Drake with eight points in the first half, while Hackbarth chipped in six points and six boards. The Bulldogs were unable to pull away from Creighton due to excellent perimeter shooting by Bluejay guard Jensen, who tallied three treys on the half.
