How many teams in that county?

 

Polk County:  8A:  Haines City, Ridge Community  

                      7A:  Lakeland, Kathleen, Winter Haven, George Jenkins, Bartow  

                      6A:  Lake Gibson, Auburndale, Lake Wales, Lake Region

                      5A:  None

                      4A:  Mulberry

                      3A:  Lakeland Christian

                      2A:  Victory Christian

                      1A:  Fort Meade, Frostproof

                      Ind:  All Saints   (Jordon Christian, Santa Fe Catholic, Vandgaurd)*

 

17 teams;  the other three private schools don't field a team every year.    Lake Wales should be 5a but opted to play 6a due to travel.  Winter Haven was a power in 6a until they got moved up and should benefit from the wildcard format.

Jenkins is 8A as well.

All the pieces are there offensively. It's all about discipline and execution. Will have to see how the defensive pieces fall into place. September 9th will be the first big test: Lakeland vs. Carol City

I look forward to the idea of Columbia vs Lakeland for first time in 94 years with right to go to states on the line ;)

Really?  I thought they were in your district.  We have them in the kickoff classic.  

They were up until a couple of years ago. They moved up to 8A with Ridge Community, Haines City, Gateway and Osceola. Needless to say, Osceola has a bit of a strangle-hold on that district.

    • I’m not saying it doesn’t occur. What I am saying is that everything is case by case so if you are accusing a specific coach/team of cheating, I would at least like to see the evidence of the accusation. Because if you don’t then you are basically defaming them with gossip 
    • Are you saying illegal recruiting does not occur in Florida ?     Wake up and take your blinders off
    • Dang shame. Wonder what it was about. Wonder if the principle was meddling out of his element.    There was a story near me about Land O Lakes High. Before the season, 2 freshman were slap boxing and other kids were filming it. One kid was obviously winning over the other with the kids in the background cheering it on. So when it got leaked, it was interpreted as hazing. As if all the kids in the background were sanctioning it.    Without one second of investigation the principal shut the entire football program down. Varsity season cancelled over 2 freshman slap boxing. It caused a shit storm. Local news swarmed the school. Parents outraged. Protesting outside the office demanding the principal be fired.    They finally asked some quick questions and it was determined to be exactly what it was originally said it was. Football was reinstated but JV missed the first game over it.    The principal was some punk pencil neck who looks like he never played a sport in his life and many people came out and said he had it out for the football program and he was the same way at his old school.    I say all that to say is this a similar case of some pencil neck principal who never played sports trying to undermine and butt in to something that they are way out their element on? 
    • Word is, Coach Banks the former head coach was escorted off campus last week after a heated discussion with the principle. from what i have been told this stems from banks talking to the paper about the program.
    • They definitely would have been competitive. They had a really good and really young OL coming back. They also had settled into a pattern of getting plenty of transfers.
