Each year hundreds of participants gather at the Santa Rosa Shooting Center in Pace for an annual, and beloved, clay shoot tradition—all in support of students and Pensacola State College. This year’s 17th Annual Day of Clays, presented by TRANE, was no exception as over 180 players took to the courses for a day of friendly competition and philanthropy for the College’s most critical needs.
Friends of PSC, alumni, local businesses, and community members alike helped make this year’s event a success—raising over $148,000 for the PSC Fund for Excellence. This special fund directly supports the growth and development of essential academic programs, student scholarships, campus facilities, and community-focused initiatives.
The annual clay shoot tradition, and its nearly two decades of impact, would not exist without the generosity of our sponsors, dedication of our committee members, service of event volunteers, and spirit of our participants.
Congratulations to the 2025 overall winners:
- Green and Red Course Team Champions: Rockhill Aviation Team #1 and Morette Company
- Top Shooters: Jason Clark, Camdyn Nixon, and David Snyder
Thank you to everyone who helped make the 17th Annual Day of Clays a success. Your unwavering support fuels academic excellence and educational opportunities for our students and their communities!
