Panthers Conclude 2023-2024 Season with Quevy & Dwyer Qualifying For NCS
October 23, 2023—Following the North Coast Section (NCS) DII Championships that took place at Metropolitan Golf Course in Oakland, CA, the Varsity Girls Golf team concluded their 2023-2024 campaign.
The Panthers wrapped up their season with an overall record of 5-5 and a 5th place finish at the Tri-County Athletic League (TCAL) Championships at Franklin Canyon Golf Course, and with two of team’s members qualifying for the NCS DII Championships—Junior golfer, Brooklyn Dwyer, and Sophomore golfer, Chloe Quevy.
Both Dywer and Quevy had decent championship rounds representing Saint Mary’s at the NCS Championships but were unable to qualify for the NCS DI Championship Event scheduled for next week. Nonetheless, it was a rewarding experience that both golfers can lean on when they return to the Panthers squad for the 2024-2025 campaign. In fact, the Panthers will be returning all 5 players from this season with hopes of bringing home both a TCAL Championship Title and an NCS Championship Title back to Peralta Park. Congratulations golfers on a fun and exciting season.
