Polk County girls soccer coach Lennox Charles has now directed 800 varsity girls and boys soccer matches for the Wolverines

Polk County’s Charles coaches 800th varsity match

Polk County soccer coach Lennox Charles reached a milestone Tuesday and nearly did so with a milestone win.

Charles coached the 800th varsity match of his Wolverine career in Tuesday’s 1-0 double-overtime loss to Hendersonville in G.M. Tennant Stadium.

Charles has been Polk County’s girls soccer coach since 2002 and now owns a 283-149-26 record with that program. He also coached Polk’s boys squad from 2002-2016 and posted a 216-108-18 mark.

That’s a combined 499-257-44 mark, a winning percentage of .651. That record includes a state 1A girls championship in 2009 and a state 1A boys championship in 2003.

Charles will again try for his 500th career victory at Polk County on Thursday as the Wolverines host R-S Central for a 6 p.m. match.
