PEORIA, IL – Bradley Tennis continues to re-write its record book and added a new chapter Saturday by earning its first-ever win against Missouri Valley Conference rival Drake, a 6-1 triumph at the David Markin Tennis Courts.
In a series that dates back to 1984-85, Bradley (14-7, 3-1 MVC) had lost all 25 dual matches to the Bulldogs (8-14, 2-2 MVC) entering Saturday's match, but cruised to Saturday's victory by following up the doubles point with wins in each of the first three singles matches to finish. Bradley also matched the program record with its 14th dual match win of the year and secured just its first winning MVC record for just the second time (also 3-2 in 1992-93) in program history.
