Within the first two minutes of the powder puff football game, senior Taja Fain scored the winning touchdown against the juniors.

The seniors won 6-0, ending a four year win-streak they started as freshman.

“I wasn’t expecting us to get just one touchdown, but the juniors actually came pretty strong, stronger than I thought they ever would,” Fain said. “I was hoping for another touchdown, but I’m grateful for the one that we got.”

When the game ended, the shocked seniors came together and started chanting “four-peat” to celebrate going undefeated in powder puff for the past four years.

“I feel so great because we worked really hard, we came together, we got it and we’re all super excited about it,” senior Chelsea Roemer said.

Roemer, while on defense, said she had to fight off painful elbow blocks by junior Lauren Bascle.

“I didn’t expect the juniors to come at us so hard, I really didn’t. So, we had to adjust to what they were doing so we could win,” Roemer said. “It was almost like tackle football.”

The coach for the seniors, Reagan Smith, who is also a senior on the varsity football team, said coaching the girls was very rewarding despite having to deal with their lack of football knowledge.

“Teaching the plays was the hardest part, there wasn’t a lot of football IQ, but it was very rewarding when we came out with a win,” Smith said.

Fain, who has played powder puff every year, appreciated getting to see how far the girls have come throughout the years.

“Every year, it’s almost all of the same people, over and over again. So, that each year you’re bonding more and more with them,” Fain said. “My favorite part of all of it was getting to do chants with my team.”
