In volleyball, Polk Middle dropped a tough 26-24, 25-13 decision to Rugby Middle, the defending Blue Ridge Middle School Conference champions.
The Wolverines (2-1) led 24-22 in the opening set and had a chance to serve to win the set, but were unable to get match point as the Raiders rallied with four straight points to close the set.
“We still have a ways to go but we were certainly more competitive against Rugby this year than last year,” said Polk Middle head coach Matthew Russell. “We know that if we want a banner we have to go through them so we’ll get back to the drawing board and hit it hard during the upcoming weeks of practices.”
