The Mustangs only lost four matches total. All other points by the opponents were by forfeit.
The basketball teams will face West Marshall for a double header tonight at home. Many members of the boys team played against and defeated West Marshall in the football playoffs, so there could be a chip on the visitor’s shoulders.
Boys coach Fred Lorensen describes what he knows of tonight’s opponents.
“West Marshall’s coming in. Don’t know much about them yet. We’ll try to get some video on them if we can and see what they’re doing. It’s been a really good program. Back about seven or eight years ago we had a rivalry with them for several years, playing in district finals and substate games. They’ve had a really good program all the way through and we’ll have to be ready. They’ll be very good.”
The PCM Mustangs split their second conference matchup of the season with the girls dropping the opener in overtime, 34-27. The boys did get their first win of the season, and in doing so, gave Coach Fred Lorensen his 600th career win in a 63-51 victory.
The boys got out to a hot start, outscoring Greene County 16-4 in the first quarter. They led at the break 38-16 before Greene County came back and outscored PCM 21-9 in the third. PCM was able to pull away in the fourth thanks to strong defense and clutch free-throw shooting from Andrew Mitchell and Sage Burns.
