Apple Valley Middle snapped Polk County Middle’s two-match winning streak on Tuesday, handing the Wolverines a 2-0 loss in Blue Ridge Conference volleyball action in Hendersonville.

The Knights earned a 25-13, 25-20 victory, dropping Polk Middle to 2-4 on the season.

After dropping the first set, the Wolverines pulled out to a 9-7 lead in the second, only to see Apple Valley scored seven straight points for a 14-9 edge. Adair Edwards helped pull Polk Middle within three with a service run, but that would be as close as the Wolverines would get.
