9.4.14 NEWS & DATES
Boys Soccer - Your PCMS Quakers fought a hard battle against the Whiteland
Warriors last night scoring 7 goals and a PK to bring the final score to 8 to
1. Goals were scored by Jacob “Leeky” Leek, Landon “Guardless” Williams,
Alfie “Mohawk” Mauris, Kamden “Zippy” Shephard, and Brigham “That One
Kid” Anderson! Jacob “Leopard” Kolditz along each of our scorers made some
great assists throughout the game! Our defense once again proved impenetrable
as a variety of players, including Qasim Elhabrush, Will Payton, Brady Johnson,
Rogelio Zamudio, and Tarek Matar, allowed less than 6 shots on goal. One
player, in response to the outcome, was quoted as saying, “The hardest part of
the game was remembering to put your shin guards on” (#shinless). Join us
TONIGHT as the boys look to keep their winning streak alive against the
Chapel Hill Giants! Game starts at 6:15, BE THERE!
Girls Volleyball - 7th and 8th grade girls volleyball team won both
