My younger brother was on the debate team at Bradley in the early 70's and they took some good road trips and were very successful. Congrats guys.

I believe this is the speech team's 20th national title. That's pretty dominant.

The major run of National titles and national prominence in Bradley's speech team came under the guidance of Laurence Norton - Bradley professor of speech and director of forensics from 1948-1973..many will probably recall Dr. Norton...
