Saturday’s competition follows the Wolverines’ successful outing on February 8 at Lake Lanier, where all three Polk County teams placed. Barber and Osborn led the Wolverine contingent there as well with a 31st-place finish, while Casturao took 69th and the team of Huskey and Highsmith placed 90th.
The Palmetto Boat Center trail will conclude its regular season on April 5 at Clarks Hill Lake in Lincolnton, Ga. Following that event, the top 80 teams in season points will qualify for the Palmetto Fishing Classic, set for May 2-3 at Lake Keowee.
Polk County head coach Chauncey Barber believes the Wolverines have a good chance to qualify two teams for the season-ending championship event.
