Tremendous come from behind win on the road by the BU women. Bradley trailed from early in the game through the 3rd quarter. Cleveland State held a 48-40 lead going into the 4th quarter, but Bradley outscored Cleveland State 27-17 in the 4th quarter due to great team defense and clutch shooting by Tatum Koenig, Gabi Haack, and Chelsea Brackman to pull even.
Then Bradley's leading scorer, Lasha Petree who had an uncharacteristically poor game (2-16 overall, 0-8 from three), made a clutch 2-point shot in the final seconds to put Bradley ahead 67-65, and they held on.

Bradley won despite poor shooting- 31.6% (24-76) overall, and 22.3% (6-27) from three.

Great come from behind win. Bradley out scored Cleveland State by 10 points in the 4th quarter.

[Da Coach]

Bradley women are now 9-0, one of only 12 Division I women's teams (out of 351) who are still undefeated. Their RPI is 131.
They have another road game Friday at 11 AM (Central time) at Purdue. Purdue is 8-4 with an RPI of 114. Purdue will be, by far, the best team Bradley has played so far.
