FOLDS OF HONOR
The Texas State University women's golf program will honor Michael W. Davis, an Army Corporal assigned to the 425th Brigade Special Troops Battalion, 4th Brigade Combat Team (Airborne), and 25th Infantry Division, who died May 21, 2007 in Baghdad of wounds sustained when multiple improvised explosive devices detonated near their vehicle, during the 2019-20 season through the Folds of Honor Military Tribute Program.

Throughout the season the Bobcats' golf bag will carry Davis' name and branch of service along with a story card that provides background information on him. At the end of the season, the Texas State women's golf team will auction off the bag. All proceeds from the auction will go directly to the Folds of Honor Military Tribute Program.

The individual carrying the bag in the tournament for the Bobcats will be decided later this week.
