It's Summer - Time for Golf!

A thirty-two-year tradition brings together former HSU athletes, faculty, and staff as over 60 golfers plan to tee up for a shotgun start at the 2008 Lettermen Golf Tournament on Friday, 27 Jun. Golfers hope for a clear morning and lots of shade as they ride out to designated starting positions on the Fairway Oaks course.

Mulligans will be on sale for $5.00 apiece, and if last year was any indication, quite a few golfers will be checking their wallets for extra cash as the day wears on. Participants will unwind and talk about the "one that should have dropped" at the post-tournament luncheon where HSU Athletic Director, John Neese will announce the winners.

Proceeds of the tournament benefit the Cowboy Club, but the real value to participants is the fellowship they enjoy with old friends, many of whom they only see once each year at this event. HSU Golf Coach David Sherman still has openings for teams and within teams, so give him a call at 670-1374 to share in the fun.

at the Faculty Staff Golf Tournament

The annual Faculty and Staff Golf Tournament wrapped up after 18 holes at Diamond Back Golf Club on Jun 14th. Bragging rights were on the line for 48 duffers as they checked and rechecked scorecards (sometimes using all ten fingers). The results were close, but indisputable. As scores were announced, players were reminded of the impermanence of all things corporeal as Meredith Stone's defending championship team was displaced at the top of the leader board by the laser-guided putters of Leland Harden, Cameron Moore, Sharon Green, and Jeff Goodin.
