Ravens host Maryland's first sanctioned girls' flag football finals

The Ravens will welcome six Maryland high school teams to M&T Bank Stadium on Nov. 17 for the state's first MPSSAA-sanctioned girls flag football state championships. Girls flag football is reaching another significant milestone in Maryland, and the Baltimore Ravens will provide the stage for the sport's next chapter. On Tuesday, Nov. 17, the Ravens and M&T Bank Stadium will host the first Maryland Public Secondary Schools Athletic Association (MPSSAA) Girls Flag Football State Championships since the sport was officially sanctioned. Three championship games will begin at 4:30 p.m., as six high school programs compete for state titles. The event marks another major step forward for a sport that has grown tremendously across Maryland over the past several years. In April, the MPSSAA officially sanctioned girls flag football as Maryland's 26th state championship sport, making the state the 19th in the country to recognize the sport at the high school level. The Ravens have played an instrumental role in that growth since launching their girls flag football initiative in 2023. What began with just 10 participating public high schools has expanded to more than 140 schools, including Eastern Shore programs through the Bayside Conference. More than half of the Bayside

Gar-Field football wins first playoff game since 2007

It was a field storm 19 years in the making. Woodbridge lined up for a 28-yard field goal attempt from the left hash with a second to go in Friday’s Class 6 Region B quarterfinal against Gar-Field. If it went through, the Vikings would force overtime to complete a stunning rally from a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit. If not, the Red Wolves would walk away with a generational triumph in an upset on their hated, ancient rivals’ own turf. The horn sounded and the kick sailed wide left simultaneously, a signal for the ensuing wave of white-and-red delirium to charge onto A.T. Howard Field. Fifth-seeded Gar-Field secured its first playoff victory since 2007 with a 17-14 win at No. 4 Woodbridge to eliminate last year’s regional runner-up, and will travel to top-seeded Colonial Forge Nov. 20 for a spot in the regional final. At 9-2, the Red Wolves have won their most games in a season since they also went 9-2 in 2001.
