        Hersey's Camp

        Coach, I'm old but not that old. I had the pleasure of attending BU when Hersey played and graduated 20 years ago. How do they figure 24 years for this camp? Did it start before he graduated?

        If so, no wonder he stuck around four years. He was making some pretty good coin on the side.

          That is due to the fact that the league existed before Hersey under different names and then after Hersey came through BU and graduated, they renamed it the Hersey Hawkins league...
          ???We all want Bradley to win. If our methods and visions for that are different, then so be it. Don't ever attempt to tell me I am not a fan!???

            That is correct. I think I remember it was the Coca Cola Summer League before Hersey's name became attached to it.
