Braves Close Road Swing At Illinois St. & Evansville

PEORIA, Ill. -- Bradley Volleyball faces a pair of key road tests with the Braves closing out a season-long, four-match road swing with a Friday night contest at I-74 rival Illinois State (6 p.m.) in a battle for third place in the Missouri Valley Conference standings in addition to the season's first matchup with Evansville Monday.

Currently tied with Illinois State (13-9 overall, 6-4 MVC) heading into the Friday night match at Redbird Arena, Bradley (10-11 overall, 6-4 MVC) topped ISU in five sets in the season's first meeting on Oct. 4 at Renaissance Coliseum and the Braves will be trying to sweep the regular-season series from the Redbirds for the first time since 2001.
