Using a grant from the cotton industry, Marymount University fashion design students worked in teams to create golf apparel in the junior and young men’s size range for high school students. In December, seven seniors were recognized with $300 scholarships after their work won a juried fashion show on campus.
Those honored included the Royal Golf team of designer Benedikete Hatlehol of Alesund, Norway, and fashion merchandisers Lena Marinaccio of Long Valley, N.J., Caitrin Waites of Silver Spring, Md., and Hannah Cline of Middleburg. The other winning team, Birdie, included designer Maya Shaw of Richmond, and fashion merchandisers Alexis Baker of Sayreville, N.J., and Chelsea Connestro of Sayville, N.Y.
