Northern Iowa has never won a Missouri Valley Conference series at Bradley but the Panthers will likely need to sweep all four games to have a shot at qualifying for the post-season tournament. The Panthers are currently seventh in the league race. Bradley has struggled to a 7-17 ninth place record. UNI coach Rick Heller says they have some quality players and can make you pay if you make a bad pitch.U-N-I won the tournament last year and Heller hopes his seniors get a chance to defend it.
