Lewis sets new PCHS record for career rebounds

Polk County’s 2024 Homecoming Queen has a new crown.

Wolverine senior Kylie Lewis established Tuesday a new school career record for rebounds, setting the mark during the first half of Polk County’s 70-30 win over R-S Central in the semifinals of the Mountain Foothills 7 Conference Basketball Tournament.

Lewis unofficially finished the night with nine rebounds, giving her 908 for her career. That surpasses the old mark of 902 set by Kim Staley Fettig, now a Polk assistant coach who watched from the bench as Lewis broke her record.

Lewis earlier this season became the seventh Polk County girls player to surpass 1,000 career points. She finished with 18 points in Tuesday’s victory.
