Congratulations to all winners!

The Simmons First Red Wolf Classic was a huge success this year, as the event introduced a new main sponsor to all players and volunteers. We had 92 two-man teams competing in this event which helps raise money for the ASU Men’s and Women’s Golf Teams. Both Coach Steve Johnson as well as the new women’s coach M J Desbiens were out and around the golf course meeting and greeting players and volunteers throughout the weekend. The weather was perfect for this event, as we were able to handle the heat wave that was in the area.  Unfortunately, a late thunderstorm forced a rain delay of about 45 minutes and thankfully the lightning stopped and we were able to get the guys back on the golf course to finish play. The results for this event were as follows:
