Our school’s flag football team has had a great 2024 fall season with varsity making it to CIF and JV ending their season undefeated. This season truly proved how hard each and every player worked and the amount of time they devoted to practice.
Varsity finished their season 15-6, where they were able to claim their spot in the first round of CIF. Their selected captains on the team were Courtney Cummings, Anniyah LittleJohn, and Esmeralda Gurrea and these ladies showed their leadership throughout the season. Not only were the Captains showcasing their leadership skills, but so was the team’s Quarterback, Gena Heredia. She commanded the field and led the team to 52 touchdowns. Even though they unfortunately lost in the first round of CIF, the team proved their hard work and dedication this season. Jaezarah, one of the varsity players, expresses how “we are extremely proud of the incredible young ladies for showcasing their talents and representing Mayfair in the highest honors.”
While varsity had a great season, JV kept the winning mentality throughout their season as well. Throughout each game, the team proved their dominance and were able to end the season with a blowout win with a score of 61-0. Valerie, a player on the JV team, tells us how they “kept up the hard work ethic, determination, and grit throughout the entire season.”
These young ladies truly proved why Girls’ Flag Football has been the talk of the year. They show that girls who are undecided on the sport they want to play in high school should give flag football a try. Many students can’t wait to see what more the flag football program will bring to Mayfair High.
Congratulations to all the flag football players on their accomplishments this season, can’t wait for your success next season!
