1 min read

R-S Central opened a two-goal late in the second half Thursday, then held off Polk County to earn a 4-3 win over the Wolverines in a non-conference boys soccer match at Polk.

The Hilltoppers snapped a 1-1 halftime tie with the first two tallies of the second half. Polk (2-3) cut the margin to one on a goal by Sam Korzelius, but R-S scored again to make it 4-2.

Isaias Akers scored for the Wolverines to again make it a one-goal game, but that would be all the scoring.
