The third annual Cranston Country Club outing will benefit men’s basketball revenue share.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Providence College announced today (July 14) that Seasons Corner Market will serve as the presenting sponsor of the third annual golf fundraising outing at Cranston Country Club, scheduled for Sunday, July 26, 2026. Now in its third year, proceeds from this outing will directly support men's basketball revenue share.

This year's outing, previously organized by the Friar Family Collective, will be hosted by Providence College Athletics and will build on the success of last year.  Tax deductible benefits will be available for all participants and sponsorships. These enhancements give participants a meaningful way to support men's basketball revenue share and deepen their impact on Providence College student‑athletes.

The event is made possible through the generosity of Seasons Corner Market, Cranston Country Club General Manager Mike Lombardi '78 and Domenic Coletta '78, whose longstanding support continues to elevate the impact of this annual fundraiser.

Festivities will begin on Saturday, July 25, 2026, with a special night before reception, allowing event sponsors to enjoy heavy hors d'oeuvres, an open bar and the opportunity to hear from men's basketball Head Coach Bryan Hodgson and meet members of the Friar men's basketball program.

The golf outing will take place the following day on Sunday, July 26, 2026. While foursomes are currently sold out, select sponsorship levels still include foursome access, offering a premium experience for supporters.

"We are grateful to Seasons Corner Market for their commitment to this year's tournament," Athletic Director Steve Napolillo said. "We extend our sincere thanks to Cranston Country Club, Seasons Corner Market, Mike and Domenic, whose generosity and lifelong passion for Providence College basketball continue to strengthen our mission and support our mission of competing for BIG EAST and National Championships."

"Seasons Corner Market is proud to support Providence College men's basketball and the student-athletes who make the Friars such a source of pride for our community," Sandra Delli Carpini, Season Corners Market Chief Marketing Officer said. "Their commitment to excellence, teamwork, and leadership reflects values we believe in, and we're honored to contribute to the continued strength and success of the program."

"My father, the founder of Seasons, would be so proud of the support the company is providing to the Friars," Domenic Coletta '78 said. "He took me to my first PC basketball game and I have been a (super) fan ever since!"

"Cranston Country Club is proud to support this event and the Providence College Men's Basketball program." Mike Lombardi, General Manager of Cranston Country Club said. "It's always a pleasure to welcome participants to our club and be part of a day that brings together alumni, supporters, and friends of the program.
