Just past the midway point of the season, the Polk County Middle School girls soccer team sits atop the Blue Ridge Conference with a 6-1 record.
The Wolverines have outscored opponents 28-6 with most goals coming from Megan Clements and Ashley Love. Goalkeeper Malena Roman and tough defenders Caroline Lee, Leah Stockdale, Jess Bentley and Scarlett Mosseller have been stingy as well, recording four shut-outs and two one-goal games.
In the midfield, Rhian Alley, Savannah Ross, Lauren Stratman, Fabiana Rivera and Emma Wagoner have controlled play through hard work and accurate passing.  Maggie Sitton, Monica Mills and Hunter Metcalf have filled in all over the field, helping the team with a consistent effort.  The team’s final home game of the season will be held Thursday, April 26 at 4:30 p.m. when the team looks to avenge its only loss so far to Hendersonville.
