The Drovers are having a successful season so far, with a current record of 17-8 and they are sitting at third in the Sooner Athletic Conference. Southwestern sits behind them at fifth, with Oklahoma City University in the number one spot, with a season winning streak of 25.

The Drovers last played Southwestern Christian University in Bethany Jan. 25 with a loss of 81-69 despite their efforts to pull ahead.
