Scholars and Sense

Thirteen finalists for the Evans Caddie Scholarship successfully interviewed January 29 at Lakewood Country Club. The seven women (a record) and six men each earned a full, four-year tuition and housing college scholarship at the University of Colorado in Boulder, where they will live among fellow students in the Evans Scholars House.

This year’s scholars (and their sponsoring clubs) are: Brenna Sullivan (Ballyneal Golf & Hunt Club); Aneka Van Hansen (Boulder Country Club); Joe Martinez (Broadmoor Golf Club); Anthony Digilarmo (Cherry Creek Country Club); Samuel Dahm (Colorado Golf Club); Michael Corrigan (Denver Country Club); Ashby Baker (Roaring Fork Club); Grant Gorman (The Club at Rolling Hills); and Amelia Moenster, Carmen Garcia, Chloe Bowden, Eliannah Angel-Lucero and Quinn Hiatt (Cherry Hills Country Club).

In addition to caddying at Cherry Hills, Angel-Lucero, Garcia and Hiatt all participated in the Solich Caddie & Leadership Academy at CommonGround Golf Course. Administered by the Chicago-based Western Golf Association (WGA), the Evans Scholars Foundation currently serves students at the Eisenhower Chapter in Boulder and more than 460 CU alumni. Locally, the Colorado Golf Association and the Colorado Golf Foundation work to support caddie programs that put more young men and women on the path to an Evans Scholarship. coloradogolf.org
