Considering his status as a Bronx native, Hofstra alum, and former New York Jet, it’s only natural to assume that Willie Colon would leave some sort of positive impact on the New York City metropolitan area.
Colon continued to do that this week, as he and several other tri-state area superstars descended upon Demarest, N.J. for a charity golf tournament hosted by CC and Amber Sabathia’s PitCCh In Foundation.
The former offensive lineman joined Michael Strahan, Justin Tuck, Victor Cruz, and the eponymous Yankees pitcher to support a cause that “(enriches) the lives of inner-city youth by raising their self-esteem through educational and athletic activities.
