The new practice area will also be used for summer junior clinics and golf camps. BGSU Director of Athletics, Bob Moosbrugger said, “BGSU Athletics is pleased to partner with Stone Ridge Golf Club. A special thank you to Paul Thayer and Joe Ghesquiere for their willingness to partner with BGSU. The course is a tremendous asset for our men’s and women’s golf programs. The new short game area will serve as a recruiting tool but will also give our student- athletes a practice facility to hone their games. The initiative compliments our priority to foster the University and Community relationship.” Ohi o Golf Journa l
