Nobody talked much about BU Softball this year, but there is news....
Way back in early January, the Bradley head softball coach Sarah Willis abruptly "stepped down" after 3 seasons. (record 69-97)
The reason given was "due to family needs that require my attention and presence at home."
Bradley then named assistant coach Lauren Gambone as Interim Head Coach.
Bradley had a very bad season in 2026, going 16-37 and 8-20 in conference play, falling well short of qualifying fo rthe MVC Post-season Softball Tournament.
Now it appears Bradley will no longer go with Gambone, and they are currently searching (and advertising) to hire a new head coach.
