Slam dunk may not be a golfing term, but playing 18 holes with ACC basketball legend Dean Smith would be an alley-oop for sure. Triangle golfers have a shot at spending a round in a foursome with the former UNC Men’s Basketball Coach.

The second annual Catfish Classic, a charity golf event begun in 2005, funds research, patient services, and provides hope and support for families coping with ALS. ALS (also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease), claimed the life of the tournament’s namesake, North Carolina’s own Jim “Catfish” Hunter.
