Regular season closes for Aces with loss at Bradley

PEORIA, Ill. In its regular season finale, the University of Evansville men's soccer team jumped out to an early lead, but fell to Bradley, 2-1, on the road on Saturday afternoon in Peoria, Ill.

"It's been a tough season and these guys have had to battle through adversity and today's match was no different," said Aces head men's soccer coach Marshall Ray. "We went down a man in the 18th minute after scoring a goal, it was a great goal by Ethan Garvey off a corner kick. The guys could have folded there; they didn't, they responded and were actually a stronger team and created more chances and opportunities through the first half and into the second half.
