Polk Wolverine tennis beats W. Henderson, falls to Owen

The Polk County Wolverines went into doubles tennis play against West Henderson Monday, April 16 needing just one more win on the court to call the match a victory. With that match pretty much in the bag, it was Owen that Coach Richard Davis looked to beat.
“West Henderson was a good team and a good tune up after spring break before Owen,” Davis said. “But Owen was the team we had to beat.”
For the Wolverines, confidence was vital as they headed into a rematch against Owen Tuesday, April 17.
The Wolverines lost to Owen two weeks ago, 5-4, and needed to beat Owen in order to have the chance to play a tiebreaking match and make their way into regional play as a team.
Unfortunately, that dream was cut short for Davis and his guys as they fell 6-3 Tuesday night.
