Steve聽Moniaci, HBU director of Athletics, said, 鈥淲e are very pleased and grateful to be able to dedicate the Lucy McBride Golf Practice Area here on our campus. Through the聽generous blessings of the聽McBrides, both of our golf programs can now practice their short game right here on our campus instead of traveling鈥斅爋ften more than an hour each day鈥斅爐o and from a golf course.聽The practice in the short game is invaluable to our teams.鈥疐urthermore, the time saved allows our golfers more time聽to study and more time to be聽part聽of campus life here at HBU.聽We are very thankful to the聽McBrides聽for this gift.鈥�
