Conard High School football alumni, and current and former coaches, were among those who hit the links at Simsbury Farms on Aug. 12, 2023, for the Eighth Annual Bob McKee Classic, a golf tournament held to honor the former coach and namesake of Conard’s Robert McKee Stadium.
McKee, who died at age 95 in December 2017, launched the football program at Conard when the school opened in 1957, and was head coach until his retirement in 1983. McKee was succeeded as Conard’s head coach by his son-in-law, Rob Cersosimo, who was succeed by his son and current head coach, Matt Cersosimo in 2014.
The annual tournament began in 2014, but was not held due to COVID-19 in 2020, and remained on hiatus in 2021.
