CYPRESS, Texas - The Texas State Bobcat Club hosted the 4^th annual Houston Bobcat Club Leadership Council Golf Tournament on Monday, March 5 with over 70 supporters of Texas State athletics playing the beautiful Black Horse Golf Course in Cypress, Tx. The tournament started at 11 a.m. with 18 teams competing for the first place prize.

Teams were provided with a barbecue dinner and awards following the tournament. The event also included a silent auction that featured signed memorabilia, an official Texas State Golf Bag, concert tickets and getaway packages. With the combination of ticket sales, silent auction items and day-of proceeds, the tournament raised more than $19,000 for the Bobcat Club.

"The success of this golf outing is the direct result of the efforts of the Houston Bobcat Club Leadership Council.  Our Houston Bobcats are passionate about Texas State and the mission of the Bobcat Club.  Their hard work is the reason this event continues to grow each year," Assistant Athletic Director Tom Meade said. "As an organization we look forward to this event each year, it gives us the opportunity to make connections with our Bobcats in Houston and share our mission of supporting student-athlete scholarships."

Additionally, we would like to send a big thank you to the sponsors of this event, they have truly made a difference in the lives of student-athletes.
