Polk passes its way to serene 3-0 victory over Madison

1 min read

Polk County used its conference clash with Madison on Monday to focus on its passing and possession skills – while not forgetting to score a few goals along the way.

The Wolverines had little trouble with the Patriots, taking a 3-0 victory in a Western Highlands Conference clash in G.M. Tennant Stadium.

Facing a Madison team (1-13, 1-5) with just one win on the season, Polk County (6-8-1, 4-2) spent much of Monday’s match controlling the ball in midfield, looking to score but also looking to keep possession while moving the ball around the field.
