Bradley men’s basketball team scheduled to hit the floor Monday

Journal Star

PEORIA — Official summer workouts have finally arrived for college basketball.

On Monday for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic halted the 2019-20 season in mid-March, coaches and players can work together on the basketball floor.

But it will be anything but normal. Coaches must don masks and do their best to socially distance from the athletes.

“It could present some challenges,” said Bradley coach Brian Wardle. “But we’ll abide by whatever we have to abide by just to get on the court.”

The Braves will separate into two groups by position and go for about 45 minutes each session at their Renaissance Coliseum practice gym.
