Bradley University's former on-campus athletic field served many purposes for the Braves, including varsity baseball, varsity football, varsity track and field, freshman orientation assemblies, and parade grounds for the U.S. Air Force ROTC program. On their 50th anniversary reunion in 2006, the 1956 Bradley Baseball Team, which placed third in the 1956 NCAA College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska, honored the history and evolution of traditional excellence at this memorable hilltop site.
