Braves Top Evansville 75-68 For First Valley Win

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Sophomore Nyjah White scored all of her game-high 18 points in the second half and the duo of Gabi Haack and Chelsea Brackmann each scored 11 after the intermission to help power Bradley Women's Basketball to a 75-68 road win at Evansville Friday.

Bradley (11-3 overall, 1-2 MVC) earned its first Missouri Valley Conference victory of the year with the win, marking the third consecutive season the Braves earned their first league win of the year on the road.

White helped Bradley recover from a sluggish first half in which the Braves shot 34 percent, scoring 18 second-half points as she came off the bench for the first time this season.
