The Bradley Soccer team is now on top of the Missouri Valley Conference standings after defeating Central Arkansas last Saturday.

The Braves jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first half thanks to goals by Alex Garcia, Grant Olson, and Frank Bak. Central Arkansas would turn up the pressure, but Bradley would hold off the hosts and win by the final score of 3-2.

The Braves won their third consecutive game, and improved to 4-0-0 in MVC play.

Up next for the soccer team is in-state and conference rival SIU-Edwardsville.

Although it is not the final home game, the team will recognize their four seniors, so come out and support them in one of their final games at Shea Stadium.
