'Ready every night': AJ Green's career-high 35 points lifts UNI past Bradley

CEDAR FALLS, Ia. — Less than 10 months ago, Northern Iowa and Bradley tangoed for a St. Louis thriller that featured it all. A big lead, a bigger collapse and tons of late-game drama made for exciting action, as the Braves snatched a shocking Big Dance ticket in Arch Madness’ final minutes.

Saturday, UNI and Bradley rekindled the love. There were no postseason implications — but still plenty of tantalizing moments in the Panthers’ conference home opener.

In fitting Valley fashion, UNI’s offense was clunkier than its reliable nonconference form. Perfect time for AJ Green to unleash his best scoring performance yet.
