A trio of former Bradley Soccer players are playing playoff soccer at the professional level and all three have moved on following victories this week. Notably, Wojciech Wojcik scored the only goal in Oklahoma City's 1-0 win against Reno Saturday, while Jochen Graf got the scoring starter in Rochester's 2-1 win against Charlotte, both in the 2017 USL Cup Playoffs Conference Quarterfinals. Goalkeeper Logan Ketterer is a member of the Columbus Crew SC, which advanced past host Atlanta United in penalty kicks Thursday night in the Knockout Round of the Audi 2017 MLS Cup Playoffs.

Graf and Wojcik both are featured prominently in the game highlights videos included in Saturday's match recaps at uslsoccer.com.

Jochen Graf | Bradley 2009-12
A fifth-year pro who has played extensively in Europe, Graf is Rochester's leading scorer in 2017 with 11 goals combined in the regular season and postseason. A two-time All-Missouri Valley Conference selection at Bradley, Graf scored on a 53rd minute header to give the Rhinos a 1-0 lead in their eventual 2-1 win Saturday against Charlotte. Rochester visits Louisville City FC Saturday in the 2017 USL Cup Conference Semifinals.

Logan Ketterer | Bradley 2012-16
A two-time All-MVC goalkeeper for the Braves, Ketterer was selected in the fourth round of the 2017 MLS SuperDraft by Columbus Crew SC. He has been rostered as the backup keeper in eight matches for Crew SC this season, most-recently Sept. 23 in a home match versus New York Red Bulls. After battling host Atlanta United to a scoreless draw through 120 minutes of action in front of 67,221 fans at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Crew SC advanced to the Audi 2017 MLS Cup Playoffs Eastern Conference Semifinals with a 3-1 victory in a penalty kick shootout. Leg 1 in the semifinals will be played Tuesday in Columbus with Leg 2 slated for Nov. 5 at Yankees Stadium.

Wojciech Wojcik | Bradley 2010-13
The 2013 Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year, Wojcik's fourth pro season has been interupted by a serious arm injury when he fractured his elboy in a US Open Cup match June 7. He has played in 18 games overall for OKC Energy FC and netted his fourth goal of the year with a left-footed laser in the 41st minute, the eventual game-winner, in Saturday's 1-0 win at Reno 1868 FC. Energy FC visits San Antonio Saturday in the 2017 USL Cup Conference Semifinals.
