By Sun-Times Wire

BOURBONNAIS, Ill.–The Bears have not been here a week this summer and they’ve already ensured they will return to Olivet Nazarene University next summer for three weeks.

Team and university officials made it official this morning when they signed a contract to bring the team back in 2010 in the option year for the two-year agreement plus a mutual option that the sides originally agreed to before 2008.

This is the eighth summer the Bears have trained at the school.
