Game Notes | The Starting Five
1) Bradley will try to halt a 2-game slide Tuesday when the Braves host Central Michigan in its lone on-campus game of the season at Renaissance Coliseum.
2) Bradley has won three straight in the all-time series against Central Michigan and the Braves will be trying to complete a sweep of the 3-year series between the two programs.
3) The third undefeated team Bradley is facing during its 7-game start to the season, Central Michigan is trying to open a season 6-0 for the first time since 1963-64 after winning its first five games at home.
4) Including his 5-0 record against Central Michigan, fourth-year Bradley head coach Geno Ford is 21-0 all-time against the six teams that make up the Western Division of the Mid-American Conference.
5) Bradley has played the first six games of the season without projected starting point guard Tramique Sutherland, a 2014 NCJAA Division I honorable mention All-American. Sutherland fractured his left ring finger during preseason practice and was scheduled to have the finger re-evaluated Monday with the possibility of being cleared for full contact.
