Mount Airy enters as the top seed in the 1A West field and will wrestling fourth-seeded Bradford Prep while Polk County, the sixth seed, faces second-seeded Robbinsville. The two winners will then meet to determine the regional champion and state finalist.
The Wolverines’ current success represents their deepest playoff since 2009, when Polk won its first two matches in an eight-team West bracket to reach the regional final, where the Wolverines fell to West Wilkes.
