Junior forward Tyshon Pickett made 7-of-12 field goal attempts while scoring a game-high 16 points, leading the Red squad to a 34-27 victory in the annual Bradley Basketball Red-White Scrimmage Friday night. The men’s intrasquad scrimmage capped off a Bradley Athletics triple header, labeled Cram the Coliseum. Pickett, a 6-foot-6 power forward who transferred to Bradley this summer, was the only double-digit scorer for the Braves. He added five rebounds and a steal in his 16 minutes on the floor.
