Dates for a number of Polk County athletic events during the next few weeks have been put in place.
A look at each date by sport:
FOOTBALL: Polk County’s non-conference game at Draughn will be played Saturday at 6 p.m.
Draughn asked to move the game due to playing Madison on Tuesday in a game that had to be rescheduled due to COVID-19 protocols.
That means the Wildcats will play three games in nine days, having defeated Rosman on Friday, then facing Madison on Tuesday and Polk County on Saturday.
VOLLEYBALL: Polk County will open play in the Mountain Foothills 7 Conference tournament on Monday at R-S Central.
The Wolverines received the fifth seed in the conference tourney and will travel to the No. 4 Hilltoppers. The match will begin at 5 p.m.
The winner will face No. 1 Brevard in the semifinals.
Polk County will also open play in the state 2A volleyball tournament on Saturday, with pairings to be announced on Thursday.
CHEERLEADING: Polk County’s competitive cheerleading squad will take part in the Piedmont Regional on Nov. 6 in Kannapolis.
The event will be held at A.L. Brown High School in Kannapolis.
Polk County will also compete in the Carolina Classic in Greensboro on Nov. 20.
