Past and present sports celebrities met today for a round of golf to benefit sick children.
The 19th Brian Jozwiak Celebrity Golf Classic raises money for the WVU Children's Hospital. In past years, it has benefited the neurology, cardiology, and neo-natal units.
Jozwiak says this annual tradition started when he was an offensive lineman for WVU.
"I've been involved with WVU Children's Hospital since my playing days at WVU," explained Jozwiak, who played with the Kansas City Chiefs after graduating from WVU. "Don Nehlen was our head coach used to always take us over there and get us with the kids, and I've kept that tradition alive in my world; living in central Florida and coming back every year for the Tournament. It's important that we keep this going."
The Celebrity Golf Classic raised more than $30,000 today for the Children's Hospital, and has raised $250,000 to date.
