Braves Earn Road Point at Evansville, 2-2

EVANSVILLE, IN - Clark Emerson and Younes Dayekh each scored goals to put Bradley (6-3-1, 1-0-1 MVC) in front and goalkeeper Brandon Barnes recorded double-digit saves for a second straight game, but a controversial penalty kick for host Evansville (5-3-1, 0-1-1 MVC) led to a 2-2 draw in Missouri Valley Conference men's soccer action Wednesday night at Arad McCutchan Stadium.

Evansville's PK goal in the 61st minute snapped Bradley's shutout streak at 333-minutes, 50-seconds spanning five games, the seventh-longest shutout streak in program history. Despite the draw, the Braves picked up an important road point in the conference standings, earning their first road result in league play since a 1-1 draw at Drake in the 2015 regular-season finale.
