Pembroke, NC - The UNCP Department of Athletics is pleased to announce the newest addition to its list of endowed scholarships: The Raymond Hagmeier Endowed Scholarship for Athletic Training. At each of the University's Season Ending athletic banquet, Athletic Training Program Coordinator Jim Wall is proud to present the inaugural award to rising athletes.
In August of 2003, the first annual Raymond Hagmeier Golf Tournament was held at the Snoqualmie Falls Golf Course near Seattle, Washington. Forty-five golfers participated and began what looks to be a yearly tradition. All of the tournament's proceeds were used to establish the Hagmeier Scholarship, which will be presented annually to a UNCP student-athlete majoring in athletic training.
The endowed scholarships offered by the University of North Carolina at Pembroke are a result of the generosity of alumni, community leaders, and friends of the University. They are a vital key to the success of our athletics program and afford UNCP staff the opportunity to recruit quality students to the Braves program.
Quotes from Scholarship recipients:
"This scholarship has allowed me to stay in school and complete my college studies. I am so thankful for everything you have done for me."
"This scholarship has helped me with my self-confidence. I always thought that I was not good enough to stand out, and be different from everyone else.. and certainly not enough to get a scholarship! I could never explain how truly grateful I am!"
"Being in athletic training requires a lot of time, dedication and hard work. It also makes those who are trying to work to put themselves through school a whole lot harder. WIth the scholarship program that you were generous to start, it takes a lot of stress off me while I work and go to school."
"This scholarship has lightened the burden of paying for collegte, and it has shown me that people really do care for others who are trying their best to be great at something in life. This helps me AND my family since both of my parents just had major surgery! I just can't thank you enough for the support and kindness you have bestowed upon me."
