I've posted this list before, but it's updated with this year's Bradley All MVC picks (sorry for the lengthy post)
This year we have 3 All-MVC picks (Childs and Brown 2nd team, and Kennell 3rd team) for the first time since 2004 (Sommerville, Gilbert, Gillingham).
These are the only seasons Bradley has had 3 or more All-MVC picks- 2004, 1996, 1990. 1987, 1986, 1983, 1982, 1974, 1961, and 1960.
Note that in 1960 and 1974 Bradley had 4 All-MVC picks, and in 1961 they had 5 All-MVC picks!
Below is the entire list of All-Time Bradley players named All-MVC-
In the 60+ seasons from 1949-1951 & 1956-2014 (note that from 1952-1955 Bradley left the MVC and was independent, so there were no All-MVC players those years) there were only 3 MVC seasons without All-MVC players....only 1956, 1970, and 1975.
But then from 2015-2017 there were 3 straight seasons (thanks primarily to Geno, Joanne, and Mike).
We now seem back on track with 3 straight seasons with multiple All-MVC players.
Here is the entire list of All-Time Bradley players named All-MVC- only 1956, 1970, and 1975 did not have All-MVC players until the Geno Ford era when Bradley went from from 2015-2017- 3 straight seasons- without any All-MVC players.
