This scholarship is being awarded in memory of Byron F. “Corky” Knoll, Jr. Corky had a love for the game of golf and an interest in the grounds the game is played on. After serving four years in the Army, in 1961 Corky enrolled in Penn State University’s golf course maintenance program, graduating in 1962. He started working at Moselem Springs Golf Club in 1963 as assistant course superintendent. From 1965 to 1966 he transferred to DuPont Country Club in Wilmington, Delaware. He returned to Moselem Springs Golf Club in 1966 and spent the next 36 years as golf course superintendent, retiring in 2004. Corky passed away in 2006 at the age of 67.
