Hendersonville did keep the match close early, with wins at 83 and 113 pounds making the score 24-12 a third of the way into the match. But Threlfall’s decision and Matthew Jarrett’s dominant effort at 126 pounds helped spur the Wolverines to wins in four of the next six matches before Polk dominated the upper weight classes.
The Wolverines have shifted their scheduled home match against Flat Rock and will now wrestle the Eagles on Wednesday at East Henderson High School. That match will precede Polk County High’s match with East Henderson.
