Bradley is now 19-9 and 10-5 in the MVC, and have won 4 games in a row since the return of Elijah Childs. The next game is a road game Saturday night, 7:00 pm at Valparaiso. Valpo is 14-14, 7-8 after their hard fought 77-75 overtime loss at Drake Wednesday night. The game is scheduled to be on ESPN+;
This is Valparaiso's third season in the MVC since moving from the Horizon League. In 2017-18 they were 15-17, 6-12, and finished 10th. In 2018-19 they were 15-18, 7-11 and finished 9th.
Bradley and Valparaiso played January 29 in Peoria, and Bradley won 80-69. Bradley played that game without Elijah Childs. Ja'Shon Henry had one of his best games as a Brave that night with 21 points and 9 rebounds in 27 minutes, Bradley shot 53% as a team and 50% from three.
For anyone thinking of going, the Valparaiso campus is a little less than 3 hours drive from Peoria in northwest Indiana, and there are many tickets sill available. Here is a link for tickets. The Bradley bench is in front of section D. If you click on Section D, it will show the available tickets in that section.-
Valparaiso has played in the Athletics and Recreation Center since 1984. It seats about 5,000 and was renovated in 2011, but it still is one of the two smallest arenas in the MVC (along with Gentile Arena at Loyola which also seats about 5,000). And the arena itself has the appearance and feeling of a large high school gym. Most of the seats in the arena are bleacher-type bench seats, but sections F, G, H, I, and J across from the team benches are chairback seats. There will be a number of Bradley fans there, so consider joining us!
