SHORT-HANDED WEEKEND
Bradley played short-handed during its matches this past weekend versus Eastern Illinois and at Northern Illinois ... Seniors Ari Dechter (family emergency) and Ashley Thai (injury) missed both dual matches ... Dechter is Bradley's all-time winningest player, while Thai ranks fourth for combined career wins in Braves history ... Dechter is expected back for this weekend's matches at Milwaukee and UIC, while Thai continues to recover from her lower-leg injury.

RECORD CHASE
Senior Ariel Decther is expected back in the lineup this weekend when the Braves visit Milwaukee and UIC and she enters the weekend tied atop Bradley's all-time lists for both career singles (73) and career doubles (58) victories.

SERIES INFO
After snapping an 8-match skid to Milwaukee with a 5-2 win in 2015, Bradley will be looking for consecutive wins against the Panthers for the first time since winning five straight in the series from 2001-05 ... Milwaukee owns a 9-6 record in the all-time series, including a 5-3 edge as the home team ... Bradley owns a 6-3 record all-time against UIC, although the Flames have won two straight and three of the last four meetings ... Despite the relative proximity, last year's 5-2 win by the Flames in Chicago came in the first series meeting since 1996.
