Commitment
“I was the first person to get involved in the Bradley Scholarship Society several years ago. Our volleyball player was from our home town of Kewanee, Illinois. Now our girls love tennis so we thought it would be natural for them to have a tennis player as a role model. I think it’s great if you can make a difference in the life of a college athlete, help support the University, and provide a family for an athlete for four years.”
Mark Petersen
“Given Bradley is a small-sized school, it’s important to have a good support system with families, like the Petersens, who really want to help.”
