Overholt earns All-WNC selection for track, basketball

Recent Polk County graduate Olivia Overholt capped her athletic career with All-Western North Carolina recognition in two sports.

The Citizen-Times of Asheville named Overholt to its All-WNC track and field team and also made Overholt a second-team All-WNC pick in basketball. The publisher recently announced both teams.

Overholt finished the 2022 track and field season by winning the 800-meter state title and also helped Polk County’s 4×800-meter relay team claim a state championship.

Overholt led Polk County in scoring during the 2021-22 basketball season and completed her career as only the fifth female Wolverine player to surpass 1,000 career points.
