Big Sandy College Educational Foundation, Inc. hosts Annual William G. Duke Golf Scramble at StoneCrest Golf Course

The Big Sandy College Educational Foundation, Inc. and Big Sandy Community and Technical College (BSCTC) hosted the annual William G. Duke Golf Scramble on Friday, August 10 at StoneCrest Golf Course. 

The 2018 William G. Duke Golf Scramble helped to raise over $20,000, which will again benefit the Big Sandy College Educational Foundation, Inc. Golfers were welcomed by BSCTC President/CEO Dr. Sherry Zylka and teed off shortly thereafter for a great day of golf for a great cause! 

Eleven teams played in the golf scramble, which is played annually in memory of William G. Duke.  Duke served as special projects coordinator at the college from 2004 until his death in 2012. 

“We appreciate everyone’s support for the William G. Duke Golf Scramble,” said Dr. Zylka.  

Golfers this year had the opportunity to win a 2018 Chevrolet Malibu, donated by Pop’s Chevrolet if they got a hole-in-one on hole #8.    After a day of golf, the City of Prestonsburg team comprised of members, Bryan Johnson, Josh Roberts, Eddie Rose, and Whitie Meek took home the win with a score of 19 under par.  Second place, Turner Technology, Inc. with a score of 18 under par and in third place, Eclipse Collieries with a 17 under par.  Rick Keene won the door prize, a Yeti cooler donated by ViaMedia.
