Cibola Cougars Girls Flag Football Players Target Nebraska's 2028 Inaugural Season
The University of Nebraska's decision to launch a girls flag football program in 2028 has sent shockwaves throughout the New Mexico high school football scene. For Cibola Cougars players, this means new opportunities for scholarships and competition at the NCAA Division 1 level. Coaches Liz and Katie Sowers, a veteran duo with extensive experience in the NFL, will lead the charge. For Albuquerque prospects, the key is to stay focused on the verified scholarship programs. Ottawa University, Kansas, and Keiser University, Florida, offer up to 12 scholarships and are actively recruiting. Midland University, Nebraska, is also an option. Players can take concrete steps by attending summer camps and creating highlight tapes to showcase their skills. UT Arlington's program is still in development, but the Cougars' top performers will be eyeing the Cornhuskers' inaugural season.
