Bradley is a strong, powerful player despite being under six feet tall, he is able to handle many forward 1v1 and in the box. Bradley should sign a homegrown contract with the Dynamo after his senior if he continues to develop as he has so far.

Bradley signed with Tulsa where Head Coach Tom McIntosh said “Bradley is a very strong center back, He is athletic, good on the turn and can pass it out of the back, which is important in our system. Bradley is also very good in the air and communicates very well for a kid his age. He is going to bring very good experience to the team and will make an immediate impact to the back line.”

Bourgeois has played 60 game with Tulsa, starting all of them, scored three goals and provided an assist. He was named to the C-USA Freshman team in 2012, named to the C-USA third team in 2013, named to The American conference first team in 2013 and was his clubs Defensive Player of the Year.
