Bradley's Bite
"It is a new month. We are 0-0. We are starting fresh. We are evaluating what we did well in the last month, what we didn't do as well, and moving forward to the month of October. The focus is on us and only us."

Corner Converter
Freshman back Annalena Ulbrich has been a constant threat for opposing defense on penalty corners. Ulbrich has converted all six of her goals on the year on penalty corners.
