General information This information is from a tournament in a past season! This is a College tournament in Illinois. View manager contact information 16th annual “Hell Froze Over” Swing Hosted by Bradley University and the University of Texas at Austin January 10 and 11, 2015 Dear Colleagues: We invite you to join us for the Sixteenth annual Hell Froze Over Swing for colleges and universities, to be hosted by our two friendly forensics programs this year on the campus of Bradley University, January 10 and 11, 2015. This year’s swing offers you a number of benefits, but in our minds the most important is the celebration of the continuing friendship not just between our programs, but between ALL programs! The swing will consist of two, one-day tournaments, reducing your travel time. Each tournament will offer all eleven AFA-NIET events and will follow AFA event descriptions. Those of you who attended last year know how much fun we had and we assure you the fun has just begun! Please come join our teams in Peoria, as we celebrate yet another chapter in the rich relationship that is collegiate forensics!
