THANK YOU to everyone who made the 43rd Annual Leatherneck Club Golf Classic a success!

After being postponed by the pandemic in 2020, the annual fundraiser returned to Harry Mussatto Golf Course on Monday, June 7, 2021. Nearly 120 golfers enjoyed 80-degree weather and received gold Adidas ¼ zip shirts, Jimmy John's lunch, and a delicious steak dinner. The event featured numerous Leatherneck student-athletes and coaches, and a brief program after the outing.
