Polk County Middle secured sole possession of the Blue Ridge Conference East Division title and continued its drive for another undefeated regular season with a 75-25 win Tuesday over visiting Rugby Middle.

The Wolverines improved to 13-0 overall, 9-0 in East Division matches. Polk closes its regular season on Thursday at home against Apple Valley.

Polk Middle never trailed in Tuesday’s match, with Silas Amorelli winning the day’s opener with a quick first-period pin at 76 pounds. The score stood at 24-7 after six matches, but the Wolverines won four of the next six matches and then reeled off five straight wins in the upper weight classes.

Perhaps the day’s most exciting match came at 170 pounds, where Polk’s Callum Eadus rallied for an 8-5 decision over Rugby’s Everett Ayers. Eadus trailed 5-4 entering the final period but was able to record a crucial escape and secured the win with a takedown.
