Polk County golfers battled high winds and cool temperatures Thursday to finish in a tie with Owen, 11 strokes behind Hendersonville, in a Western Highlands Conference match at Tryon Country Club.

The Wolverines teamed for a score of 361, trailing only the Bearcats’ 350. Madison placed fourth with a score of 409 as inclement weather kept the remaining schools from competing.

Gabe O’Brien and Dillon Overholt had matching 88s to lead the Wolverines, with Jaylon Bontrager posting a 90 and Hunter Lynch carding a 95. Also competing were Josh Chupp (101) and Trey Thompson (104).
