Arch Madness: Bradley Outlasts Southern Illinois in Quarterfinals

Bradley University pulled off a second half comeback over Southern Illinois University 64-59 to advance to the semifinals of Arch Madness — the Missouri Valley Conference men’s basketball tournament.

Senior guard Darrell Brown was the Braves’ leading scorer with 19 points on 7-for-13 shooting. Brown also dished out eight assists.

“We couldn’t get going offensively, but our defense and rebounding keeps you in the game,” Bradley head coach Brian Wardle said. “That’s what March is all about; survive and advance. You’ve got to have an identity that keeps you in the game when the offense isn’t going.
