Polk County wrapped up a very good week Thursday, rolling past Hendersonville 14-0 in a five-inning Western Highlands Conference softball game at Polk.
Ashley Scruggs and Caitlin Britton held Hendersonville to one hit as the Wolverines, already with wins this week over East Rutherford and Madison, improved to 11-1.
“This was a really nice finish to a good week,” said Polk County head coach Jeff Wilson. “The girls were focused, and obviously the long ball is going to be important to us moving forward.”
