On the weekend of Aug. 10-11, more than 30 high-school-age girls flag football teams gathered at West Palm Beach’s Lake Lytal Park to participate in this year’s Palm Beach Summer Shootout flag football tournament, presented by Rising Stars Athletics.
Of those 30-plus teams, the highest finishing team from the western communities was the squad from Seminole Ridge High School, under the direction of head coach Scott O’Hara.
The team from Seminole Ridge played four games in the two-day tournament and finished with a winning record.
“We finished 3-1, and the one loss was in overtime to South Florida Elite Gold,” O’Hara said. “So overall, it was a very good performance, and we certainly had chances to win the semifinal game, as well.”
O’Hara was also pleased with the play of his sophomore quarterback. “Quarterback Aubrey Fogel played very well and certainly helped us to have a chance to win every game,” O’Hara said. “We lost to the champions (South Florida Elite Gold) in overtime in the semifinals.”
