Championships in New Orleans
November 14, 2004
PENSACOLA -- Holy Rolls, FSU's reigning men's all-campus flag football
champions, brought home the 2nd place trophy from the 25th annual University
of West Florida Regional Flag Football Championships in Pensacola last
weekend. With the runner-up finish, Holy Rolls received an automatic bid
to the 2004 ACIC Nike Flag Football National Championships in New Orleans
this December.
Holy Rolls ended pool play undefeated, downing powerhouse Southern University
of Baton Rouge 13-7 and Alabama A&M 27-0. In tournament action, Holy
Rolls outlasted the University of South Alabama 40-27 in the quarterfinals,
then downed Troy University 19-13 in the semifinals. Perennial power and
local favorite Pensacola Junior College defeated Holy Rolls in the championship
game.
Holy Rolls' Chris Roth and Dusten Cote were each named to the All-Tournament
Team. As a team, Holy Rolls' second place finish is the best-ever by a FSU
team in the UWF regional.
