Rep. Sykes Names Nordonia Knights Girls Flag Football as the Champions of the Week for #OH13!

Congresswoman Sykes named the Nordonia High School Girls Flag Football Team the Champion of the Week for Ohio’s 13th Congressional District! The team made history last month as they won the inaugural Girls Flag Football State Championship. This was also the first-ever girls state championship won by any sport at Nordonia High School. Nordonia scored a touchdown with just three minutes left in the game, winning with a score of 20-19. The tournament featured three rounds and eight total teams competing for the trophy from two regions: the Northeast Ohio area, represented by the Cleveland Browns, and the southwest region, represented by the Cincinnati Bengals. Nordonia was one of six schools that attended the Browns' first-ever flag football jubilee event back in 2021. Now, they get to call themselves state champions.
