Â
For the second straight year, the Keiser flag football team was crowned Sun Conference Champions following a 33-15 win over Thomas (Ga.) in the SUN Championship Game on Saturday afternoon. It was back-to-back scores by sophomore
Ashlea Klam that turned the championship game into a rout as the Second-Team All-Sun Conference honoree found the endzone twice in the final five minutes of the second quarter.
The native of Austin, Texas, gave Keiser a 20-7 lead with a 14-yard touchdown catch with 4:45 left in the half. Klam followed that score with the momentum shift of the game, returning a Kaitlyn Herb pass 75 yards and the score - her 13th interception of the season. On first-and-goal from the KU three-yard line, Klam shadowed Herb, who was looking for an underneath pass but Klam positioned herself perfectly, taking the pick "to the house". She also added her 14th interception on the ensuing drive to end the half. She is the nation's leader in interceptions.Â
Quarterback
Haylie Young added four touchdown passes in the game, completing scores to
Janasia Wilson (six yards),
Kennedy Foster (17 yards), Klam (14 yards), and
Chloe Griffin (seven yards).
The win marked the first for Keiser over Thomas (Ga.) in Thomasville (1-4 all-time). A rematch of last year's Sun Conference Championship Game, it was also the Seahawks fourth win in their last five meetings with the Night Hawks. The win improves Keiser to 6-2 all-time in the Sun Conference Tournament and 3-1 in the league's championship game. The win also improves Head Coach
Samantha Harris to 34-3 all-time at Keiser.
