7 Billy Hitchcock Invitational Billy Hitchcock Intercollegiate golf tournament has become as much a part tradition as going to Tiger Walk or sipping on some Toomers lemonade. Over the past 17 years, has played host to one the premier tournaments on the collegiate level. Known for its excitement friendly atmosphere, the top teams in the nation come down every April to enjoy Southern hospitality a few rounds golf. However, we think some just come to eat the barbecue dinner which is served after the first round. Whatever the reason is, the competition gets tougher with each passing year. tournament is a three-day, 54-hole event, which culminates in an award ceremony held after the final round. One the main reasons why the Hitchcock is so important is that it gives SEC teams one last chance to prepare for the SEC Championship. For NCAA District III teams, it is an opportunity to snag one the eight spots at the NCAA East Regional Championship. Griffin s dream developing hosting a tournament came true, when on April 29, 1988, the first tee-shot was hit in the inaugural Hitchcock Intercollegiate. It was important for us to have a home tournament for the home crowd because, unlike other teams, collegiate golf teams do not have the opportunity to play half their events at home, Griffin said. Since we only have one opportunity, we wanted to make that one opportunity a good one through hospitality. Hitchcock committee, our golf hostesses our sponsors have given us the needed support to conduct a truly firstclass event. When it came time to pick a name for the tournament, there could be no better namesake than Billy Hitchcock. Hitchcock attended from excelled in both football baseball. As a halfback for the football team, Hitchcock scored s first-ever bowl points, when he ran for a 40- yard touchdown against Villanova in the Bacardi Bowl in Havana, Cuba, the only bowl game in history to be played out the country. It would be through baseball that Hitchcock would claim his way to fame. After graduating in 1938, he was drafted by the New York Yankees. In 1942, Hitchcock fulfilled his obligation to his country, enlisted in the U.S. Armed Forces in WWII. Following the war, Hitchcock played baseball until However, his association with baseball would not end for another 27 years. Hitchcock entered the sport on the teaching side after his playing days. His level coaching would escalate all the way to becoming manager for the Baltimore Orioles the Atlanta Braves. In 1971, Hitchcock moved from the dugout to the front fice, serving as president the Southern League until his retirement in Since play began in 1988, the have captured nine overall titles (8 the last 10) four individual titles. Individual winners were Jim Curran ('88), Jay Hobby ('96), Jason Dufner ('97) Kevin Haefner ('02). Season poses after winning the 2004 Billy Hitchcock Tournament, the eighth in the last 10 years. 41
