Ross Built Construction Vikings are the
Community Center's NFL Flag Football Division II
Super Bowl Champions.
The Sun sports Game of the Week was the Division II (10-12-year-old) NFL Flag Football Super Bowl Championship game and represented the largest age group for the children's divisions. The AFC champion Holy Cow Colts played the NFC champion Ross Built Construction Vikings. Bringing the end to the Community Center's largest program ever. The entire season ended Saturday with Super Bowl games in every age group.
The Ross Built Construction Vikings led the NFC division most of the year and were the first place seed in the playoffs. The Holy Cow Colts though had to take a different path through the AFC. The Colts had to defeat the undefeated, and league leading, Walter & Associates Steelers to advance to the Super Bowl. The emotional last second win to defeat the Steelers seemed to take its toll on the Colts.
The first half of the Super Bowl was all Vikings who scored on every drive. On their first drive, they used a tricky double reverse to Hayden Brewer, who ran it 12 yards for the touchdown. The extra point was no good, 6-0 Vikings. On their second drive, quarterback Andrew Ross threw a pass right on the money to Brewer for a 10-yard TD. The extra point was no good, 12-0 Vikings. On their third drive Andrew Ross threw to his brother Jake on a seven-yard quick hitter in the middle for the TD. The extra point was no good, 18-0 Vikings. On their fourth and last drive of the first half, Jake Ross took the handoff and streaked down the sideline for a long 35-yard TD run. The extra point was no good, 24-0 Vikings at the half. The Vikings defense shut down the usually high scoring Colts offense. Jack Coleman was all over the field and led his team with three sacks and four flag pulls. Luke Valadie also had one interception.
The second half was much of the same. Andrew Ross threw another TD to Hayden Brewer from the eight yard line. The extra point was good when Andrew Ross hit Luke Valadie in the end zone, 31-0 Vikings. Later on, Andrew Ross found a new target in Patrick Harte on a nice 30-yard catch and run for the TD. The point after failed, 37-0.
The Holy Cow Colts never gave up, and it was just one of those days. They had their chances and got the ball inside the 10-yard line multiple times, but just couldn't get it into the end zone. With less than three minutes left, the Colts got on the score board when Zach Stewart threw a nice shuttle pass to Leo Rose for the TD. The two-point conversion was no good. The Colts were highlighted by a stellar defensive performance by Joey Stewart, who had two sacks and five flag pulls. His brother Zach Stewart had six pulls. Dylan Early had 27 yards receiving and Austin Morrow threw for 39 yards.
The final score was 37-6 and the Ross Built Vikings became Super Bowl Champs.
