First, the seniors played the freshmen and won earning themselves a spot in the finals. In the second game, the sophomores beat the juniors 14-0 solidifying their spot in the championship game against the seniors. Before the final game, the juniors played the freshmen competing for third place, and it went into overtime with freshman Ava Thompson securing the win with a field goal. In the championship game, the sophomores played the seniors and the sophomores closed out the game-winning 14-0. When asked about the game sophomore Kate Nordhaus stated ”I am so proud of our team.
