The Danville Dans are a collegiate summer league baseball team located in Danville, Illinois. The team plays in the Prospect League, which their former league, the NCAA-sanctioned Central Illinois Collegiate League, was absorbed into after the 2008 season.
In their history as a CICL team, the Dans won nine tournament titles.[1] Since the merge of the CICL and the Prospect League, the Dans have qualified for the playoffs four times, with their best finish coming in 2010, when they were the runner-up to the league champion, Chillicothe Paints.[2]
The Dans play in the Prospect League's East Division along with the Terre Haute REX, Chillicothe Paints, Champion City Kings, West Virginia Miners, and Lafayette Aviators.
