The 27th annual MCLA Athletics Golf Classic will be held Monday, Sept. 23 at Wyndhurst Golf & Club in Lenox. The Golf Classic serves as a major fundraiser for the College’s Athletic Department. Over the years, the Classic has netted $25,000–$40,000 annually to support MCLA’s student-athletes.
“We are so grateful to our sponsors and participants, both those who are dedicated
longtime supporters and those who are new this year,” said MCLA Assistant Dean for
Athletics & Recreation Laura Mooney. “Their generosity and contributions allow the
department to make facility upgrades and to enhance the student-athlete experience
through new uniforms, team gear, and specialized equipment purchases. These items
directly impact the recruitment, retention, and success of our students and student-athletes.”
Each year, MCLA recognizes a deserving individual or business that has impacted MCLA
Athletics. This year's honoree is Jason Dohaney '04, a financial advisor at MountainOne
Investments and the chair of the MCLA Foundation.
This year’s Golf Classic Premier Sponsor is MountainOne.
The format for the event is an 18-hole scramble tournament. The entry cost includes
greens fees, golf cart rental, course snacks, a post-golf dinner, branded gifts, and
more.
