Soccer Downs Evansville, 1-0

EUREKA, IL – Of the 16 players who took the field for Bradley Soccer in its unusual Missouri Valley Conference opener Thursday, 11 were first- and second-year players, but it was the team's two graduates who delivered the heroics. Senior Gerit Wintermeyer scored the game's lone goal in the 14th minute and senior keeper Bryce Logan delivered a pair of rapid-fire saves in the final minute as the Braves (2-1-0, 1-1-0 MVC) held on for a 1-0 victory against Evansville (0-3-0, 0-1-0 MVC) at Eureka's Pete FioRito Stadium at McKinzie Field.
