The Carnesecca Golf Classic is the perfect way for alumni and
friends of St. John’s University to enjoy a great day of golf on
one of Long Island’s most beautiful courses while honoring Hall of
Fame Basketball Coach Lou Carnesecca. Coach Carnesecca will be
joined by a number of his former players and professional
basketball celebrities. Proceeds from this event are used to
support student scholarships and Red Storm Athletics.
Coach Carnesecca is a true New York icon, having led the St. John’s
University men’s basketball team to post-season berths in each of
his 24 seasons at the helm. He compiled an amazing record of 526
wins against only 200 losses, one of only a handful of NCAA
Division I coaches to reach the 500 victory mark. A member of the
Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, he was named BIG EAST Coach of
the Year three times and was chosen Metropolitan Area Coach of the
Year six times by the New York Basketball Writers Association.
Although he retired from coaching in 1992, he continues to remain
active within the St. John’s University community.
We also invite you to consider supporting the Carnesecca Golf
Classic through the placement of an ad in our
electronic journal. In order to be environmentally conscious,
the journal will be produced entirely online this year. This new
format will allow our supporters to place their advertisements
online, with a link to their company Web sites, where they will
remain for an entire year. You can also take advantage of a variety
of other sponsorship opportunities in addition to the electronic
journal.
So please make plans to join us at this very special event as we
raise money for a great cause and honor a living legend.
