Molloy University hit the links for its annual Golf Classic on Monday, July 15. The event, aimed at supporting student scholarships, drew participants who were eager to enjoy a day of exhilarating outdoor activities and clinics, followed by a celebratory awards dinner.
Golf enthusiasts gathered early in the morning for registration and breakfast, which was followed at 11 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. by shotgun starts at the Rockaway Hunting Club and Seawane Club, respectively.
The Golf Classic not only offered participants with the opportunity to play on a world-class course, it also featured golf and pickleball clinics with professional instructors, for those who were interested in improving their technique or learning more about one of the fastest-growing sports in the country.
This year’s event recognized Michael Sean Grant, a leader in employee benefits for the New York region at Risk Strategies, as its corporate honoree. Robert J. Behar, a partner at KPMG International and a Molloy University Class of 2003 graduate, was also recognized as this year’s alumni honoree for his achievements.
The day’s activities concluded with a cocktail reception and awards ceremony at the Seawane Club, where all players and guests celebrated the day’s successes and contributions. Event Chair Jeffrey Mulhall, president of McHugh Furnishings, and Co-Chair Dorothy Hines expressed gratitude to the sponsors and participants whose contributions will support student scholarships.
