PCM Boys Golf Season Ends with Tie for 4th at District Meet

It was a rough day for the Class 2A #2 ranked PCM boys golf team on Monday, as they shot a 345 as a team and didn’t qualify for State after finishing in a tie for 4th place with South Central Calhoun. Competing in the Kuemper Catholic District meet, the Mustangs finished eight strokes back of Des Moines Christian, who finished third and qualified for State as the host Knights won the meet with a score of 299. PCM brings back most of the core from this year’s squad, as they graduate just one senior in Grant Van Veen.
