Boise - Idaho State University's annual Boise Bengal Foundation Golf Scramble will be Saturday, May 17, at the Quail Hollow Golf Club. "There are still a few slots available for players," said Donna Hays, tournament director. "But hurry - we're filling up fast."

The scramble will have six-person teams playing in two flights. The entry fee will cover greens fees, golf cart, golf shirt, tee package, range practice, beverages, and lunch. This year's guest will be Arizona State University head football coach Dirk Koetter.

Also attending will be Larry Lewis, ISU head football coach who led the Bengals to the 2002 Big Sky Championship. Gordon Henderson, ISU women's soccer coach, and Jon Newlee, ISU women's basketball coach will also attend.

"The prizes this year are the best we've ever had," said Hays. "Thanks to the hard work of our committee, the generosity of businesses and the coaches." Prizes include:

• ASU football package donated by Dirk and Kim Koetter includes airfare for two, tickets to the ASU vs. Utah State game, sideline passes and lodging.
• McCall golf weekend includes a round of golf, cart and weekend lodging at Hobbit Haven for four.
