Montevallo Alumna and Baseball Legend Delores "Dolly" Brumfield Visits Montevallo

Story By: Jacob Bobst


Montevallo's very own baseball legend Delores "Dolly" Brumfield returned on College Night for a ceremony in her honor, in which she donated some of the memorabilia from her baseball playing and coaching career to the university archives. Her donations include trading cards, photos, news articles, and her old uniform. Dolly was an early player in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, and later earned herself a permanent display in the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

The Montevallo graduate has been a College Night regular, appearing almost every year since her graduation in 1954. The University honored her with a distinguished alumni award in 2004.
