PEORIA — Bradley posted its highest point total in the Brian Wardle era Saturday night with a 96-67 rout of Indiana State before 5,805 at Carver Arena.

The Braves (13-12, 5-7) started hot, leading 11-0 and 22-7 and never relented, building a 38-point lead with 9:10 left in the game.

Darrell Brown led BU with 26 points, 19 in the first half. Freshman Ja’Shon Henry was a force off the bench with 17 points and five rebounds. Nate Kennell added 16 in just 21 minutes off the bench.

It was the fifth win in the last seven MVC games for Bradley.
