to and will help build a memorial in honor of our fallen heroes.
The day began with a healthy competition between Lakeland Police
officers and Polk County Sheriff's deputies. The fans went wild as the
two teams tied in the 7th inning, prompting a tiebreaker inning where
PCSO won 10-9. The best hitters from all teams then participated in a
Home Run derby.
At 4:00 p.m., the National High School Champion Lakeland
Dreadnaughts mounted an impressive offense against the Super Bowl
Champs, Tampa Bay Buccaneers. There was a lot of trash-talking
between these 2 winning football teams. On hand to show off their
athletic prowess were: Alex Smith (#81), quarterback Bruce
Gradkowski (#5), Julian Jenkins (#91), and Donald Penn (#70). Barrett
Ruud (#51) came out to support but couldn't play due to an injury. The
Bucs ended up winning by one homerun, and a great time was had by
all!
