Second Annual Long Ball Derby Slated For February 3rd

Bradley Athletics is pleased to announce its 2nd Annual Long Ball Derby. Scheduled for February 3, 2023 at the Louisville Slugger Sports Complex in Peoria, the Long Ball Derby is a unique way to support the Bradley Softball program. Fans can select a desired donation increment (i.e. 25 cents, 50 cents, $1, $2, etc.) as well as a player, coach, or guest hitter. Each hitter will have 10 at-bats to record their longest ball. Utilizing the Hit Trax system for optimal accuracy, each hitter's longest ball will then be multiplied by the selected donation increment for a gift in support of the program.
