Boston College Set to Host Red Bandanna Invitational
September 24, 2023 | Women's Golf
The two-day, 54-hole tournament tees off on Monday at Tuesday at Blue Hills C.C.
CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. - Boston College women's golf is set to host its lone home tournament - the Red Bandanna Invitational - on Monday and Tuesday at Blue Hill C.C. in Milton, Mass. Â The 54-hole, two-day tournament will tee off in shotgun format on Monday morning at 8:30 a.m. and will play continuously through into the second round. Â The third and final round will be held on Tuesday. Â Live scoring will be available on Golfstat.
The tournament, previously contested as the Boston College Intercollegiate, honors the memory of Welles Crowther '99 - "The Man in the Red Bandanna." Â Crowther, who died in the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, was an equities trader with Sandler O'Neill on the 104th floor of the South Tower of the World Trade Center. Â A volunteer firefighter in Nyack, N.Y., Crowther spearheaded a rescue effort from the Sky Lobby on the 78th floor and is credited with saving more than a dozen lives. Â Survivors recalled being saved by a man wearing a Red Bandanna. Â Crowther had worn a Red Bandanna, given to him by his father, Jefferson, since he was a child growing up in Nyack, N.Y. Â He carried it wherever he went and, while a student-athlete at BC, he always wore one beneath his lacrosse uniform.
Designed in 1925 by Eugene "Skip" Wogan, the 18-hole Championship Course at Blue Hill C.C. has fully matured into a golfer's haven. Â The Championship course was restored in 2003 by renowned designer Ron Prichard, while its tree-lined fairways and lush rolling terrain remain more picturesque than ever, this course makes every golf outing an unforgettable experience. The par 72 layout evokes memories of time-honored golf as each of the 18 holes is unique in its nature and deserving of praise.
