ROCKFORD - Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning teed off for charity this morning, hosting the St. Mary's Golf Classic at Egwani Farms.

Proceeds from this year's event will go for renovations at the Women's Pavilion on the campus of St. Mary's Medical Center, according to senior vice president Jerry Askew.

Later today, the former Tennessee Vols quarterback will present the Peyton Manning Scholarship.

The scholarship has been awarded annually since 1998 to a first-year student participating in the University of Tennessee's Honors Program.

The scholarship honors the former Vols signal-caller, co-captain and 1997 All-America selection.

Manning also assists disadvantaged youth through the Peyback Foundation, which was established in 1999 to establish programs that provide the necessary leadership and growth opportunities for youth who are at risk.

More details as they develop online and in Friday's News Sentinel.
