Build Android Project with TFS and Gradle

I just migrated to Android Studio and am trying to move over to using the gradle build system for continous integration on our server hosting Team Foundation Server.

Before I was able to create android builds with TFS using the ant and the AntBuildFile tag via MSBuild.

Is there a way to kick off a gradle build via TFS similar to how I was doing this for ant??

I saw this plugin which allows you to deploy to azure cloud services via gradle.
https://github.com/MSOpenTech/TFS-Gradle-plugin However, I just need something as simple as running "gradle assembleRelease" in the correct directory.

I'm running TFS 2013.

Thanks!

It was as simple as switching over to the exec msbuild command and calling gradle. 

<Target Name="Build" >      
    <Exec  Command='"$(GRADLE_HOME)/bin/gradle" assembleRelease' WorkingDirectory="$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)/../../AlpineMetricsAndroidApp/Branch_2_1_0/platforms/android"   />
</Target>
