Towson University Athletics establishes the Robert Marchanti Scholarship.

Towson University Athletics has established the Robert Marchanti Scholarship Endowment. This was created in memory of Towson alum Major Robert Marchanti.

January 13th, 2017 - Command Sgt. Maj. Thomas B. Beyard, the Senior Enlisted Leader of the Maryland National Guard just got in touch about a military appreciation game at Towson State University in honor of a fallen comrade in arms. MAJ Marchanti

My good friend Tom writes, “Hello! My newest project. Very interesting story about MAJ Marchanti, who was a Maryland Guardsman, plus a Towson graduate and wrestler.

“He was deployed from 2011 until his death on Feb 25, 2012. He was mentoring Afghan police officials, and one of them whom he had been mentoring turned on him and murdered him inside the Afghan police building.

"We are now working with Towson Athletics, Peggy Marchanti, his widow and other partners to make this scholarship a reality. It will be kicked off tomorrow at SECU Arena on the campus of Towson University at their men's military appreciation basketball game verses Northeastern. Game is Sat, Jan 14 at 2:00 pm. Have great day. Tom"
