Blood Battle: the biggest battle off the court. The school with the most blood donations wins!
The Blood Battle competition is on! Which university will bring the trophy home?
This annual tradition pits Butler University against Marquette University to see which college can collect the most blood and save the most lives for hospital patients in Indiana and Wisconsin in order to win bragging rights.
This year’s battle runs from September 1 to April 15. The goal is 825 donations.
This year, we are confident that hundreds of Bulldogs and Golden Eagles will rise to the occasion and donate blood on and around your campuses, proving once and for all that you are out for blood. So, roll up your sleeve, give blood with your fellow students, faculty, staff, alumni and other supporters in your communities, and show what colors you bleed.
Join the winning team. Donate blood with Versiti Blood Center of Indiana and Versiti Blood Center of Wisconsin as part of this year’s Blood Battle.
The Final Results Are In!
Congratulations to the Butler Bulldogs for winning this years' Blood Battle!
Someone might get into an accident or need to go into a hospital for surgery, and they assume blood will be available. But it doesn’t come from Amazon Prime!
