As a tradition that keeps getting better, the 10th annual Red Hawk Open<\/a> welcomed a sold out field
\nof golfers as it raised more than $110,000 for ÌÇÐÄvlog student athletes. Held Sept.
\n19 at Crestmont Country Club in West Orange, the outing drew 128 attendees for a day on the links
\nthat included a BBQ lunch and dinner reception, along with raffles and prizes.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am happy to see the event grow to where it is today \u2013 the first time we have filled to capacity \u2013
\nwhich is a testament to the excitement that is going on at Montclair,\u201d says Robert Lieberman, who
\nserves on the ÌÇÐÄvlog Foundation board and regularly attends and supports the event.<\/p>\n

Proceeds from the Red Hawk Open support the more than 500 student athletes and 18 varsity
\nathletic programs of the ÌÇÐÄvlog Athletic Department. This year\u2019s proceeds will
\ncontinue to enhance the student-run and produced\u00a0Red Hawk Sports Network\u00a0(RHSN), as well as
\nprovide upgrades to the Panzer Athletic Center locker room and the Panzer Fitness Center, where
\nhaving quality equipment is essential to all teams.<\/p>\n

The RHSN support will expand use of its automated camera system to air games. The innovative
\ncameras have the unique ability to follow the action of the game using advanced auto production
\nalgorithms without the need for a camera operator. This allows the cameras to automatically identify
\nhighlights, create replays, and much more. It also automatically saves games to the cloud and can
\nstream it live or on-demand. This system of sports production is typically only seen in Division I
\nschools and professional sports. Support also will provide funds needed to increase student
\nparticipation in the program. Through the RHSN, sports communication majors at Montclair have a
\nunique opportunity to prepare for the professional world that many students across the country don\u2019t have.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe 10th annual golf outing was a tremendous success, we really appreciate the great support that
\nwe receive\u00a0from our alumni, friends and campus partners,\u201d says Rob Chesney, director of
\nIntercollegiate Athletics. \u201cThe money raised continues to support all of our programs and enhances
\nthe student athlete experience. It was great seeing new and familiar faces, and we look forward to
\nnext year\u2019s event!\u201d<\/p>\n
