The Panthers (368) trailed winner Nashville (335) and Sparta (363).

No Perry County golfer placed in the top six, but Justin Jenkel of Pinckneyville (87) was one shot out of the All-SIRR medal contention. The top six earn that designation.

Preston Chapman (88) shared eighth place with Adam Valentine (95) and Zach Kuberski (98) also scoring for the Panthers.

Du Quoin's top finisher was Jake Stanhouse with a 97.

Jacob Fisher (101), Eli Epplin (102) and Ben Hirsch (105) completed the Indians' roster.

Pinckneyville's golfers host a four-team match Wednesday at Red Hawk. Du Quoin sends its junior varsity squad to the Anna-Jonesboro Invitational.
