PEORIA — Throughout this basketball season, Bradley coach Brian Wardle has often used the analogy that this season is a novel and all the major events occurring within it are chapters in the book.
Following that parallel, this BU season had one whale of surprise ending.
Wardle laughed upon hearing such a correlation.
“Yeah, a big twist at the end,” he said. “It’s like one of those great movies you watch with an ending that totally boggles the mind and leaves you open for a sequel.”
The Braves hope their sequel next year is just as rewarding as the end of this one when they captured their second successive Missouri Valley Conference tournament championship and earned a bid to the NCAA tournament.
