Polk County opened its Western Highlands Conference volleyball schedule in positive fashion on Tuesday, sweeping past Madison in three sets in Marshall.
The Wolverines earned a 25-16, 25-20, 25-12 win, rebounding from Monday’s three-set loss at Brevard.
Reagan Waddell had 13 kills and 20 digs for Polk County (3-3, 1-0), with Addie Lynch adding nine kills and 14 digs and Cameron Capozzi finishing with five kills and 12 digs. Georgia Garrett had 25 assists, 10 digs and three aces and Lauren Ketwitz added 24 digs.
Madison dropped to 0-6, 0-1 with the loss.
The win came on the heels of Monday’s 25-20, 25-15, 25-19 loss at Brevard in a rematch of last season’s 2A third-round playoff game. Waddell had 12 kills, 19 digs and five aces in that match, with Lynch adding 10 kills and 11 digs, Garrett finishing with 15 assists and 14 digs and Kendall Hall recording 19 digs.
Polk County returns home Thursday to host Mountain Heritage in a key WHC match. The Cougars, led by Charlotte recruit Alex Boone, suffered their first loss of the season on Tuesday, falling to Hendersonville in straight sets.
