Mallard Creek Mavericks' Multisport Star Eyes Flag Football Opportunities
Multisport standout Emily Wilson, a rising senior at Mallard Creek High School, has set her sights on flag football as a potential college pathway. As the Mavericks' program continues to grow, Wilson's decision to focus on flag football could pay off with scholarships from top programs. The University of Nebraska, led by coaches Liz and Katie Sowers, is an attractive option, offering 12 full-ride scholarships in its inaugural 2028 season. Ottawa University, Kansas, and Keiser University, Florida, are also actively recruiting multisport athletes like Wilson. Midland University, Nebraska, has shown interest in local talent. Meanwhile, UT Arlington is developing its program, but has not yet announced scholarship offerings. Wilson can take concrete steps by contacting these programs directly and attending upcoming summer camps to increase her visibility.
