Astros' Multisport Star Eyes Flag Football at the Next Level
Pinkerton Academy's standout athlete, Emily Wilson, has made a name for herself in multiple sports, but her sights are now set on flag football. With the NCAA's inaugural Division I flag football season in 2028, Wilson is exploring her options at top programs. The University of Nebraska, led by coaches Liz and Katie Sowers, is a prime target, offering a Power 4 school experience. Ottawa University, Kansas, is another powerhouse program with up to 12 scholarships available. Keiser University, Florida, and Midland University, Nebraska, are also active recruiters in the space. Wilson can take concrete steps by creating a highlight tape and reaching out to these programs directly. As UT Arlington's flag football program develops, it may also become a viable option. With careful planning and research, Wilson can position herself for success in the emerging flag football landscape.
