Wed, Dec 12 - The flag football season came to a conclusion on Wednesday with a fun all-star game to wrap things up. The game was played on 12/12/12, so it seems only fitting that 12 total players showed up to play. A draft was conducted to replace the original teams, as many players were missing due to schedule conflicts or having already left for break. Team Angela defeated Team Rashad 66-44 after the rosters were rearranged. The Pigskin Hooligans were well represented as Angela Martin, Mike Russell, and Zach Johnston played in the game.
Angela Martin and Rashad Smith served as the captains of their respective teams and held a draft to select players. Angela chose first and the results were as follows:
Team Rashad began with the ball and converted on fourth down as Kevin Biscoe connected with Dauntez Oliver on a deep pass with Kheyll Morris adding the PAT to open an 8-0 lead. Team Angela answered as Hooligans QB Zach Johnston moved the team down the field and threw a mid-range pass to Dionte Dixon to respond with captain Angela Martin adding the game-tying PAT. Team Angela's defense forced a turnover on downs, and Angela Martin hauled in a TD pass to give her team a 19-8 lead. Team Rashad would make a run as Kheyll Morris caught a pass from Kevin Biscoe to cut the deficit to 19-14 and then Dauntez Oliver came up with an interception. Team Angela's defense would hold, though, and the teams traded scores before the half as captain Angela Martin caught her 2nd TD of the game while captain Rashad Smith caught a pass with a defender on him to score. The halftime score was 28-20 in favor of Team Angela. Team Angela began the second half with the ball and Zach Johnston threw a deep pass to Ryan Scott for a 34-20 lead. Team Rashad countered as Kheyll Morris found the endzone for the second time and captain Rashad Smith showed good hands on the PAT catch. Team Angela struck again as captain Angela Martin simply could not be covered, hauling in her 3rd TD of the day for yet another 9-pt score. Dionte Dixon came up big for his squad with an interception, giving Team Angela good field position so Zach Johnston could hook up with Ryan Scott again to open up a 51-28 lead. Kevin Biscoe found Dauntez Oliver on a deep pass, but Zach Johnston drove his team down the field and tossed a short pass to Dionte Dixon in the endzone. The teams traded scores again as captain Rashad Smith hauled in another TD while captain Angela Martin took a short shovel pass for her 4th TD of the day. Mike Russell nearly came up with a PAT catch at the end, but the 2pt try was no good and the final score was 66-44 in favor of Team Angela. For Team Angela, captain Angela Martin was the star of the day recording 4 receiving TDs along with a few flag grabs and a pass breakup. Zach Johnston continued to show why he's a legend, passing for 8 TDs on the day with a couple runs and flag grabs. Ryan Scott saw action mostly as a receiver in the game, catching 2 TDs. Dionte Dixon had a good day with 2 TDs and an interception. Ahmad Trice had a PAT along with a few receptions and an interception on a PAT at the end of the first half. Mike Russell tied his career high with 3 receptions in the game, 2 of which went for first downs. For Team Rashad, Kheyll Morris had a solid offensive day with 2 TDs and 3 PATs. Kevin Biscoe passed for 6 TDs in the game. Dauntez Oliver notched 2 TDs and an interception in the game. Captain Rashad Smith showed his speed and had 2 TDs and a PAT. Martell Buchanan was held off the scoreboard but showed his blazing speed on a couple receptions. Humphrey Ihejirikah had a couple receptions that went for decent gains. Both teams would like to thank Corrina Rotondo and Mikey Conant for helping to keep the clock. This game officially concludes the 2012 CUAA intramural flag football season.
