DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) Grant Kraemer threw for 304 yards and two touchdowns, Conley Wilkins rushed for two scores, and Drake held off Campbell for a 33-21 win on Saturday.

Drake (4-4, 3-2 Pioneer Football League) took advantage of two early Campbell mistakes en route to a 17-0 lead after one quarter.

After a Camels fumble, Kraemer found Andrew Yarwood for a 6-yard TD to put the Bulldogs up 7-0. Campbell (3-4, 1-3) drove 57 yards on 12 plays on its next possession, but an interception and 58-yard return put Drake on the Camels' 17-yard line.

Two plays later, Kraemer threw another TD pass - this time to Zach Zlabis for 12 yards.

Anthony Robbins, who threw for 298 yards for the Camels, had touchdown passes in the second and third quarter to get Campbell within 20-14. But Wilkins scored on second-half touchdown runs of 2 and 5 yards, the latter with 8:35 remaining to give Drake a 33-21 lead, and the Bulldogs' defense held firm.
