Moss Beecroft is best known in golfing circles as one of the county's best senior players. The six-time Virginia State Golf Association seniors champion played competitively in the United States and Europe through the early seventies and became nationally ranked among seniors in the early nineties. Going into the final round of the 1992 U. S. Senor Open, Beecroft was tied with Jack Nicklaus after rounds of 70-75-70 but faded in the final round but was still low amateur of the tournament. Three years later, he was ranked No. 3 on the national senior's tour. Beecroft also held the Virginia state high school pole vault record for a number of years.
