Whenever you think of state championships coming from Polk County, generally the schools you think of now are Lakeland and Lake Wales since they just won titles back in December. 

There’s another team, however, that has a history behind them of winning state titles as Frostproof High School has won three championships in its program history. The Bulldogs were a contender last season in Class 2S and should be again this fall. 

The last time Frostproof won a state championship was 24 years ago when they defeated Trinity Christian Academy 6-0 for the Class 2A championship back in 1999. Frostproof was led by then head coach Bill Pierstoff.
