COLLEGE HOME RUN DERBY CROWNS A NEW
CHAMPION: JEFF CAMPBELL, UNIVERSITY OF NORTH DAKOTA
Records Set at 6th Annual
Event
The University of North Dakota’s Jeff Campbell won the 2015 TD
Ameritrade College Home Run Derby tonight at TD Ameritrade Park
Omaha here in front of a crowd of 20,087 energized fans. The event
aired nationally on ESPN.
Campbell bested Will Craig of Wake Forest University in the
final round 10 to five. Led by Campbell and Kel Johnson (Georgia
Tech) in the first round, the field set a new record for homers in
a round of 79. The previous best was 48 set last year. Craig got to
the final round by pummeling 16 in the second round.
“On behalf of TD Ameritrade employees nationwide, we are pleased
to congratulate Jeff Campbell on his victory,” said Katrina Booker,
managing director, communications and public affairs for TD
Ameritrade. “This was an exciting night for college baseball,
family and Omaha, and we were thrilled to be a part of it.”
The event also recognized the University of Rhode Island’s Tim
Caputo, recipient of the 2015 TD Ameritrade Fan’s Choice Award. In
its fourth year, this award recognizes college baseball players who
excel beyond the diamond and whose leadership inspires others. The
finalists demonstrate integrity in all aspects of life, stay active
in their community and are dedicated in the classroom. The winner
was determined by the fans through a four-week Facebook
competition.
