PEORIA, IL – Bradley Tennis will continue its season-opening, 4-match home stand with a stiff challenge Saturday when the Braves (1-0) host defending Western Athletic Conference champion UMKC in a noon dual at the Clubs at River City.
Despite playing short-handed due to illness and injury, Bradley came away with a 4-3 victory in its season-opener last weekend against Milwaukee. The Braves are expected to be closer to full strength Saturday, thanks to the return of junior Natalia Barbery, who was unable to travel back to Peoria from her native Bolivia last week due to the flu.
