NEW PALTZ, N.Y. – On Friday, Aug. 15, more than 100 golfers showed up for the State University of New York at New Paltz Department of Athletics, Wellness & Recreation's seventh-annual fundraising golf tournament at Apple Greens Golf Course in Highland, N.Y.
Mother Nature once again provided a perfect backdrop for the day, which saw numerous low scores. In addition, the 21 student-athletes who participated in the department's third-annual Leadership Summit interacted with the golfers at various different holes throughout the course.
A three-way tie for first (at -13) occurred, and the foursome of Christian Adel, Ken Hartling, Rodger Ecker and Andrew Comatos prevailed in a closest-to-the-pin chip-off to win the first-place trophy and a photo opportunity with the green jackets that have become synonymous with the event.
