<p>On a hot and sunny Saturday, the Polk County 7v7 Championship brought together some of the notable high school football talent in the area. It was a fiercely competitive event, with teams battling it out to get in some valuable practice before the fall season starts. It was good to see so many Polk teams come together for this event. In the end, it was Fort Meade who emerged victorious, thanks to some impressive performances on both sides of the ball. National Scout Drew Johnson was on hand to identify some standout players, and the event was a great showcase for the talent that Polk County has to offer.</p>
