Treviso golf event ‘Feeds Dreams’; FC Naples continues winning stream
An event Oct. 29 brings together golfers, community leaders and local businesses for a day of golf with a purpose: Support Southwest Florida children.
On October 29, golf enthusiasts, community leaders, and local businesses convened for the "Feeds Dreams" tournament at TPC Treviso Bay, all united in the noble cause of aiding children facing food insecurity in Southwest Florida. The day commenced with registration and breakfast at 7 a.m., followed by a shotgun start at 8:30 a.m., where participants took to the 18-hole course.
Post-play, attendees enjoyed a luncheon complete with live and silent auctions, culminating in an awards ceremony that honored winners in both gross and net categories.
Feeding Dreams, the primary beneficiary of this event, strives to break the cycle of poverty by providing more than 3.5 million nutritious meals annually to children in need. The tournament's success last year was monumental, raising over $200,000, which significantly bolstered Feeding Dreams' mission across Southwest Florida. As Ed Mullen, the founder of Feeding Dreams, aptly stated, "No child should ever be too hungry to learn, grow, or reach their full potential.
When you feed and support a child, you don't just fill their stomach—you can change the entire trajectory of their life."
On the football front, FC Naples continued its winning trajectory with a resounding 2-0 victory over the Richmond Kickers at Paradise Coast Sports Complex. The match began with Naples capitalizing early, netting a goal in the 23rd minute courtesy of Kevin O’Connor's assist to Gio Miglietti. The home team maintained this lead into halftime, bolstered by a solid defensive performance that stymied Richmond's offensive efforts.
Interim Coach Zak Gordon commended his team's improved second-half performance, noting that their strategic adjustments significantly impacted the game's outcome. Miglietti's second goal in the 67th minute solidified Naples' dominance, with Ty Collins providing the crucial assist. The defense, led by goalkeeper Lalo Delgado, played a pivotal role in neutralizing Richmond's threats, ensuring a clean sheet and a triumphant 2-0 win.
This victory extended FC Naples' winning streak to three matches, keeping them firmly in contention for the postseason. With three matches remaining, Naples' focus remains on securing a strong playoff push. Captain Lalo Delgado emphasized the team's commitment to focusing on the task at hand, urging the squad to push forward and secure the necessary results to make another mark in the USL League One playoffs.
