Polk County Middle saw its regular season end Wednesday with a loss, but the Wolverines still earned a bye for the upcoming Blue Ridge Conference boys soccer tourney.
Polk’s 1-0 loss at Rugby Middle left the Wolverines with a 11-2-1 regular-season record. Even with the loss, Polk finished 9-1 in the BRC East Division and earned the division championship.
That earned the Wolverines a first-round bye for the BRC tourney that has expanded this season to 10 teams. Polk will begin tournament play on Wednesday against the winner of the opening-round match between Hendersonville Middle and Canton Middle.
