Steph Curry is helping Howard University launch its first Division I golf program

During a January visit to Howard U, NBA star Stephen Curry was approached by Otis Ferguson, who’d started a campus golf club. It so inspired Curry that he’s back in D.C. today to announce 7-figure donation to create a D1 program at Howard.

HU athletic director called it “one of the most generous gifts” in the school’s history.

Having the support of a sports giant like @StephenCurry30 as we develop the 1st-ever NCAA Division 1 Men’s & Women’s Golf Program at Howard is incredible. We are excited for the opportunity this brings our students.

Hats off to 3rd-generation legacy student Otis Ferguson IV!💙❤️ pic.twitter.com/V8rbQA9IDB
