Panthers Say Thank You After Successful Golf Outing7/27/2010 - The annual Milwaukee Basketball Golf Classic was a huge success, with a full slate of 36 foursomes enjoying a day of golf and dinner at North Shore Country Club. In all, the event raised nearly $40,000, monies that will go to support a variety of initiatives designed to keep the Panther basketball program moving forward. The event, which took place July 19, saw fans eagerly bidding on a variety of special auction packages, including a seat on the bench for this year's game with Marquette and the chance to travel with the Panthers to a variety of different away games. The Milwaukee Brewers also donated a suite with food for a home game this season - another popular auction item. UWM men's basketball coach Rob Jeter has passed along a special thank you to everyone who participated in the event. Read Full Release 7/16/2010 Panthers Start Practice For August Trip To Italy

He was then invited back to the Bucks' training facility late this week and officially received word this afternoon he would make the squad headed west. Franklin earned All-Horizon League Second Team honors for the Panthers this past season.
