The PCM Mustangs girls basketball team has had a down year, but that hasn’t hindered the dedication of their four seniors. Emma George, Celeste Wagaman, Lilli Baird, and Riley Hjortshoj bring their best effort to every game and practice.
Head Coach Jeff Lindsay has special praise for this special group of girls as their high school basketball careers come to an end.
“They’ve been good leaders and that’s been the important thing because with not winning a lot this season it can be really easy to lose a team a little bit. But those four girls have shown their leadership ability.”
The PCM Mustangs got their first sweep of the season Tuesday at home against Saydel. The Mustang girls got just their second win of the season 55-22 and the boys won 65-19, as heard on the KRLS3 stream on their senior night.
The PCM girls were dominant from start to finish, and so much so that they pushed the Eagles to a continuous clock in the fourth quarter. Lilli Baird led the way with 16 points and Riley Hjortshoj added another 10.
Head Coach Jeff Lindsay says that a lot of hard work finally paid off as the girls finally got another win, and it being on senior night makes it even sweeter.
The PCM Mustangs girls basketball team is off to a shaky 1-10 start, including being winless in conference play, but there is more to it than just getting outplayed.
They opened the season with a one point loss to Chariton and had one defeat come in overtime a few weeks later. They have also been in plenty of games in the third quarter or later.
If some errors and miscues can get cleaned up, the ladies can surely finish out the year with a smile on their faces.
Head Coach Jeff Lindsay describes what has plagued his team in the first month of the season.
