Alabama State unveils new on-campus golf clubhouse

The new Hornet Golf Clubhouse has officially opened at Alabama State University, bringing one of the first HBCU on-campus golf facilities to Montgomery.

Earlier this month, the university held a grand opening celebration at the 3,000-square foot facility located across from the Houston Markham Football Complex.

“We will be among the first HBCUs to have a facility like this located on our campus. What we are unveiling is the result of a collective vision by ASU’s leadership team to help us train and develop scholar golf-athletes and generate interest among student-golfers nationwide to join Hornet Nation.”Dr. Quinton T. Ross, Jr., ASU President

The ribbon-cutting celebration brought together members of the golf team as well as community and city leaders. Everyone got to explore the new facility which includes:

• High-tech golf simulation range
• Putting green
• Locker rooms
• Lounge
• Study area
• Coaches’ offices
