 CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (AP) - Patrick O'Bryant scored 18 points and Bradley won its fourth straight game with a 71-49 victory over No. 25 Northern Iowa on Wednesday night.
Tony Bennett added 13 points for Bradley (17-9, 10-7 Missouri Valley Conference), which swept the season series with Northern Iowa for the first time in five years and picked up its first win over a ranked opponent this season.
The Braves pushed a nine-point halftime lead into a 61-43 advantage with 6:00 left by hitting 11 of their first 16 shots to open the second half. Bennett highlighted that stretch with two 3-pointers and by making defender Ben Jacobson slip with a crossover, then burying an 18-foot jumper.
