STEPHENVILLE, Texas — The 27th annual First Financial Bank Plowboy Shootout is not just a local rite of summer. It’s a chance to show support for Tarleton Athletics.

The event is set for Friday, June 22, at Squaw Creek Golf Course in Willow Park. Deadline to register is June 15.

Cost to enter is $400 per team for the four-person scramble and includes green fee, cart rental, continental breakfast, lunch, supper and beverages. A post-tournament drawing for prizes is also part of the festivities.

Tarleton alumni, former student-athletes and fans of Tarleton Athletics are eligible to play in the tournament.

“We’d love to have everybody come out,” said Tarleton Athletic Director Lonn Reisman. “The Stephenville and Tarleton State University community, our fans, our boosters, our alumni and our former student-athletes all make this an important event. It’s a great time to reconnect.”

Participants may register individually or as teams with single players assigned to a foursome.

Hole sponsorships also are available at the shootout. The $100 sponsorship includes tee-box signage recognizing the donation.
