A four-year letter-winner for the Tiger wrestling squad, Otis Bradley completed his career as a three-time Mason Dixon Conference Champion and two-time Mason Dixon Conference Most Valuable Wrestler.  Bradley finished his four-year career with a 42-1 overall record as he placed second in the Mason Dixon in his weight class during his freshman campaign in 1960 with his only loss of the season and his career coming during the championship bout.  Bradley captained the Tiger wrestling squad from 1961 through 1963 and won the 191-pound division in 1961 and 1962, while being voted the most outstanding wrestler.  Bradley moved up to the unlimited weight division and again won the Mason Dixon crown and was voted most outstanding wrestler in 1963.  While a student at Hampden-Sydney, he won the Virginia AAU Championship in the 191-pound bracket and placed fourth in the East Coast AAU Tournament in New York.   Bradley also lettered in football for three years (1960-62) as a linebacker and earned First Team All-Little Eight in 1962 and was voted top defensive player on the team.  Bradley was also a recipient of the Joshua Warren White Trophy for sportsmanship in 1961. 

Bradley is a retired programming manager for IBM Corporation and resides in Austin, TX.
