Since its inception, the NSU Scholarship Golf Classic has raised over 6.4 million dollars in endowments funds to benefit the student-athlete scholarship fund. Through live and silent auctions, a raffle the day of the tournament and through generous donations from the event sponsors, the tournament was one of the most successful golf events in recent history.

“The Scholarship Golf Classic is the perfect combination of a successfully ran special event and an outpouring of philanthropic support, all while supporting a great benefactor – the student-athletes of NSU,” boasted Director of Athletics Michael Mominey. “We have been so fortunate to have so many friends of the university who have been supportive of the event for so many years, I am humbled to be part of the greater purpose and lead a preeminent athletic program with great student-athletes who are ambassadors of our university on and off the field of play”.

The support and success of the Scholarship Golf Classic is essential to the sustainable success of NSU’s NCAA Division II athletic program. Nova Southeastern currently sponsors 17 teams, as well as the Sharkettes spirit squad. The Sharks have captured eight NCAA Team National Championships, 21 Individual NCAA National Championships, and 36 Sunshine State Conference Championships.

NSU student-athletes live the core values and vision of the university by realizing their potential on and off the field and. In addition to athletic accomplishments, they are driven to perform at the highest level in academics. As a result, NSU Athletics has achieved a collective departmental GPA of 3.0 or higher for the past 16 consecutive years and for the past three years have achieved a 3.20 GPA or higher.
