Dowling Catholic Standout Sees Flag Football as Path to College Opportunity
As the inaugural 2028 season approaches, the University of Nebraska's Power 4 status and coaching duo of Liz and Katie Sowers is drawing attention from multisport female athletes in the Midwest. For Dowling Catholic's standout athlete, flag football represents a chance to earn a college scholarship. The Maroons' star player has been in contact with the University of Nebraska's coaching staff, who are actively recruiting for their inaugural flag football team. Additionally, Ottawa University, Kansas, and Keiser University, Florida, have also expressed interest in the athlete's skills. Midland University, Nebraska, another NAIA powerhouse, is also on the radar. As UT Arlington's flag football program develops, it's expected to offer scholarships in the future. To capitalize on these opportunities, the athlete is focusing on creating a highlight tape and attending summer camps at these institutions.
