West Linn Flag Football Star Draws Interest from Nebraska, NAIA Powerhouses
As the inaugural 2028 season for girls flag football approaches, the University of Nebraska is leading the charge in the Big Ten. Coaches Liz and Katie Sowers are actively recruiting top talent, and local standout Sarah Johnson from West Linn High School has caught their attention. Johnson's skills on the field have also garnered interest from NAIA programs, including Ottawa University, Kansas, Keiser University, Florida, and Midland University, Nebraska. While UT Arlington is developing its program, it has not yet begun offering scholarships. For athletes like Johnson, this means exploring verified scholarship pathways at NAIA schools. To increase chances of securing a spot, Johnson should focus on creating a highlight tape showcasing her skills and contacting coaches at these programs directly.
