Munya Maraire Has the Best Excuse

Munya Maraire braved the harsh conditions of the Elks Club in 2008 despite having never golfed before.  He held his on on the course because of the great equalizer, Best-Ball (Captain's Choice).  He won't be able to make it this year, and has the best excuse of all.  He won't be on this continent, as he is back in Africa helping talented youth athletes repeat his journey to Penn State! 

Munya's journey to Penn State is quite interesting and was a little more difficult than most of ours.  I salute him in his endeavors in South Africa and his native Zimbabwe, as I know his job is not easy.  Currently in Zimbabwe a $100 Trillion Zimbabwean  note is worth the equivalent of less than $7 American!

Emunael Mpanduki, a PSU freshman is adjusting well to the rigors of Central Pennsylvania and his first ever glimpse of snow!  We all wish him well.
