The Intramural Flag Football Playoffs started on Tuesday Oct. 29 and lasted through Sunday Nov. 3.

This was a fierce competition as each team wanted to win the championship. The winner of the championship gets to go New Orleans, Dec. 27-30, to play in the National Flag Football Championship sponsored by Foot Locker.

This year there were four different leagues that played flag football. They were the Jack and Jill teams, which were made up of guys and girls, Men’s Talon, Women’s Talon, and Men’s Claw.

Saturday was a cold day to watch football but many went out to support their favorite team to win. At 11:00 the Jack and Jill teams battled it out with the Omegas and a Pike playing COCSC and The Carneys playing Broken Lizards.

The winners from those games were Omegas and a Pike beating COCSC 31-0 and The Carneys winning over Broken Lizards 25-11.
