The top moment of the school year for PCM was a resilient football victory in Week 4. The Mustangs were stymied in the first half at Central College against Pella Christian, but won in dramatic fashion 20-19, as heard live on 92.1 KRLS.

Pella Christian scored early in the contest and held a 13-0 halftime advantage. PCM was able to penetrate into Eagle territory, but was plagued by untimely turnovers.

The Mustangs came out of the gate firing on all cylinders in the second half. The opening drive was capped off by a three-yard touchdown run by Sage Burns. A muffed punt gave the Eagles the ball at the PCM 11 yard line in the closing minutes of the third quarter, allowing the Eagles to go up 19-7.

Sage Burns had another rushing touchdown to start the fourth quarter to make it 19-14, and PCM forced a Pella Christian punt on the ensuing drive. The Mustangs got the ball back, and Burns plunged in from one yard out with 59 seconds to play in regulation to put PCM up by one at 20-19.

A 2-point conversion attempt failed, and Pella Christian would get one last shot. A penalty wiped away a PCM pick-six, but the Mustangs would recover a fumble with eight seconds left to seal the win.

PCM went on to finish the season with a record of 8-3, graduating 13 seniors.
