One of the better high school football programs out of the Polk County area is the Lake Gibson Braves, under the watch of second-year head coach Jeff George Jr. The Braves featured a few of the county’s top players, including UConn signee Cason Dash , wide receiver Derrick McBride and linebacker Malachi Moore .

With Moore slated to return for Lake Gibson, the Braves are looking to take the next step in Year 2 under George.
