CORTLAND, NY (Sept. 23, 2003) — The sport management program at the State University of New York College at Cortland held its annual Suzanne Wingate Memorial Golf Tournament Saturday, Sept. 20 at the Willowbrook Golf Course in Cortland. The event, which included 18-holes of golf, a silent auction and a barbeque chicken dinner, raised $7,670 in profit.
On the 14th hole, a par-3, Dan Shearer from Ithaca scored a hole-in-one. The foursome of Matt Hazzard, Nick Rhyde, Brian Kuchta and Mike Ford finished first of the 30-team field with a score of 58. Proceeds from the tournament benefited the Suzanne Wingate Memorial Scholarship Fund for sport management majors. The scholarship, given each spring, became endowed in 2001. Previous recipients of the award are: Thomas Haslett (2003), Karin Pindle (2002), Chad Homer (2001), Brian Duprey (1999), Joseph Barbarito (1998) and Brian Marion (1997). The tournament, in its eighth year, is named after former SUNY Cortland professor Dr. Suzanne Wingate. Wingate, who was an avid golfer, is credited with founding the college’s sport management program and worked there from 1985 until her death from cancer in 1995.
