Game Notes

Bradley Braves put away the Purdue Boilermakers 67-58 to win the NIT Championship after being snubbed by the NCAA tourney.

The Braves capture their 4th NIT championship as Mitchell Anderson leads with 16 points to capture the MVP award. Anderson and point guard Willie Scott step up as Bradley breaks out from a 31-31 halftime tie and then holds off a late rally.

Purdue cuts it to 59-56 with just over 2 minutes to play, but Anderson hits a pair of free throws and then the Boilermakers come up empty on successive trips allowing the Braves to stretch out the lead.
