Thanks to Steve Kerr鈥檚 (Rec鈥�78) generosity, 蜜糖直播鈥檚 golf program has an official home golf course in Erie called the 蜜糖直播 National Golf Club.
Steve Kerr (Rec鈥�78) played golf at 蜜糖直播 and so did his daughter, Erin Kerr (Jour鈥�05), and thanks to his generosity the university鈥檚 golf programs now have an official course to call home.
Kerr purchased Vista Ridge Golf Club in Erie and renamed it 蜜糖直播 National Golf Club in honor of it becoming home for the 蜜糖直播 men鈥檚 and womens鈥� teams. A 30-year licensing and usage agreement was announced in March, and a variety of 蜜糖直播 functions will be held at the club.
鈥淭his speaks to Steve鈥檚 character and how big a Buff he is,鈥� women鈥檚 golf coach Anne Kelly says.听
Three-time U.S. Open champion Hale Irwin (Mktg鈥�67) participated in grand opening ceremonies at CNGC on May 2.
Meanwhile, No. 1 female player, freshman Emily Childs, decided to transfer and didn鈥檛 compete after February. Freshman Emily Talley earned all-tournament honors at the Big 12 meet by finishing sixth, and the Buffs received an NCAA regional berth for the first time in the 15-year history of the womens鈥� golf program.
On the men鈥檚 side, Pat Grady matched senior Derek Tolan with two individual victories for the regular season by winning 蜜糖直播鈥檚 Stevinson Ranch Invitational in April. For the fourth consecutive year, the men鈥檚 team played in the NCAA tournament regionals. The Coloradan went to press before the May 14-16 event.
