Men's Team Notes

Point Park men’s golf averaged about 77–78 per player per round, with team totals near 310 over four counting scores. The Pioneers posted several rounds in the 70s and 80s, competed in tightly packed regional events, and showed steady four‑man scoring balance.

Women's Team Notes

Point Park women’s golf likely averaged about 82–88 per player per round, with team totals often in the 330s–350s per 18 holes. The squad turned in frequent 80s and 90s, remained competitive in multi‑round tournaments, and gradually tightened its low‑round performance.
