Once again, Polk County is the Western Highlands Conference volleyball champion.
The Wolverines clinched their sixth straight WHC title on Thursday, sweeping Avery 3-0 in a conference match in Newland.
The 25-14, 25-16, 25-17 win, combined with Mountain Heritage’s loss at Owen, gives Polk County (17-3, 8-0) a three-game lead over the Cougars with just two conference games remaining. The Wolverines have won at least a share of the WHC title in each of Molly Hill’s six seasons as head coach.
