The 11th Annual Western New England College Athletics Department Golf Classic was another big success as over 130 golfers played in the event under perfect conditions Monday, Sept. 21, 2009 at the Crestview Country Club in nearby Agawam, Massachusetts.
The tournament raised over $50,000 to benefit the school's student-athletes.
The primary purpose of the event is to ensure that the Western New England College athletic experience is second to none. Sponsorship dollars directly benefit all of the student-athletes at Western New England College.
This tradition of excellence is a direct result of our supporters, and we appreciate and
THANK YOU for participating in this year's tournament.
