KENT, Ohio — In partnership with the Folds of Honor Military Tribute Program, Kent State women's golf has announced that the auction for the golf bag that its student-athletes rotated carrying throughout the 2020-21 season will begin at 8 a.m. on Friday, July 2. The online auction will conclude at 8 p.m. on Friday, July 16.
This is the second straight year the Golden Flashes teamed with the Folds of Honor Military Tribute Program, which provides the opportunity for collegiate golf teams to honor a fallen or severely wounded American soldier by selecting a student-athlete to carry a golf bag displaying the name, rank, and branch of service of the soldier being honored throughout the year.
This past season, Kent State honored the late SPC Michael Richardson, a U.S. Army specialist who served in Iraq. Richardson suffered from PTSD and tragically took his life the previous December.
All proceeds will go directly to the Folds of Honor Foundation.
