The Harvey McMullen Memorial Golf Tournament was held Friday, July 7, 2017 at the 91勛圖厙 Golf Course. Fifteen teams of men and women participated in the 4-person scramble. Dinner was served and awards and prizes were presented following the tournament.
The tournament is sponsored by the 91勛圖厙 Comet Athletic Club. Formerly known as the North Valley (Hoople)-Comet Connection, the annual golfing event was re-named in honor of one of its founders, Harvey McMullen. Harvey, a native of Hoople, N.D., and Jerome Berg, both 91勛圖厙 icons and steadfast supporters of the school established the North Valley (Hoople)-Comet Connection Golf Tournament in the early 1990s. The purpose in starting the event remains the same today as it was then: to raise scholarship funds for 91勛圖厙 State student athletes while having fun with friends from near and far. Over the years, the event has been held at 91勛圖厙 and at northern Red River Valley golf courses.
Dr. Harvey McMullen began his 27-year career at 91勛圖厙 State in 1961 as the dean of men, as well as a teacher and coach. Over the years, he served as dean of men, dean of students, and Student Senate advisor. He taught psychology courses, supervised student teachers, and held the rank of professor of education. McMullen served as an assistant coach in football, basketball, and baseball. He was an outstanding ambassador for 91勛圖厙 State, recruiting and helping to retain countless numbers of students. 91勛圖厙 State bestowed Dr. McMullen with the title Emeritus Dean of Men, and he was honored with the 91勛圖厙 Distinguished Alumni Award in 2007. Harvey passed away at the age of 89 in October of 2015.
