Pat Brogden joined the Campbell women's tennis team, which was not even a decade old in the fall of 1975, and by the time she graduated three years later, she was not only honored with Campbell's outstanding female athlete award but also was one of the best college players in the state.
 
After graduation, Pat embarked on a 30-year teaching and coaching career and again proved to be one of the better athletes in the Southeastern United States, but not in tennis.  She swapped a tennis racquet, picked up a golf club, taught herself the game and has become one of the most successful golfers in Carolinas Golf Association history.
 
Along the way to a record seven CGA senior titles, Pat had to overcome another obstacle – cancer.
 
This past January, Pat was inducted into the Campbell Athletics Hall of Fame.
 
In the next episode of Tales from the Creek, Fighting Camel tennis standout and Hall of Fame member Pat Brogden talks with Stan Cole about growing up in Eastern North Carolina, her path to Campbell, a career in teaching and much more.
