to defeat the Cali war with me again this season is Donna Wilkinson Donna what are we gonna see out there this evening Wow I've been with DC playing this Boston team three times this year they are tough they are disciplined focused this I've never seen them move they're playing against a Cali team that's got a lot of all-stars these guys are gonna have to fall out tonight if they want to hang with his Boston team all right Boston moving right to left across your screen Cali won the coin toss and elected to receive [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] liandry's Smith is on the return makes her way up to about the 27 yard line before she is forced out of bounds we talked a little bit before the game tell you war they're coming out here on offense we're in the white jerseys moving left to right what are they gonna need to do are they gonna have to throw the ball they're gonna have to rub the ball well they've been Oh with a balance of both passing and running they've actually passed four more yards and they've run for this year but look for a breakout game from destiny Yarborough last week in their playoff game versus Arlington impact she had 202 yards rushing and a touchdown if they're gonna do anything she's got to get the ball going on the ground all right quarterback Chantel Wiggins meets it the huddle lets her team know what she expects out of them this play lines up in a shotgun formation - up top - down low running back behind her ball is handed off right away handed off to number 26 Destiny Yarborough actually loses yardage on the play taken down there by Boston renegades number 64 Shona singers yeah just you know typical of Boston's defense they're coming in too hard they run this three-three defense now you can see there's a really big back and if she can get a head of steam going it's gonna be hard to take her down but nice a nice leg tackle there yeah and Brooke Goss was actually in on that tackle as well - up top - down below again for Kali second down and 11 bad snap high snap lissa King manages to dive on the ball at the backfield disappointing loss there for Kali though they're looking at third and long here to start the opening drive of the game yeah well Kelly might lead them lead the league and defense only giving up 4.4 points per game this Boston defense is just tough yeah with 1337 remaining here in the first quarter its third and 21 for Kali war on their opening drive got to up top to down below shotgun formation Wiggins drops back releases the ball she was looking looking for number 24 Breanna gallo overthrew her on that play and right away it's a quick three and out for Kali war well yeah this is gonna be a long game if Callie can't establish some sort of presence on offense they've got to get it done on the ground and like we said they can't be making these kind of mistakes and put themselves in a hole so early in the game Boston has two people back looking to receive the punt further back number five shantia Creek looks to receive the punt high snap punches off [Music] balls punted out of bounds so Boston is going to start with excellent field position right away on their first possession of the game they're gonna be first in ten from Kali's 45 yard line yeah when you look at this Boston team they have 290 years of football exchange and you just cannot out Coates 290 years that's a lot of experience they're bringing out here although this Cali team they've got 190 years of experience so when we're putting these two teams together there's a lot of football experience out here on the field tonight so look for number seven Allyson Cahill to lead Boston out onto the field bringing in her plays gonna see what she has for us this evening one receiver up top to down below and off right away number 22 Ruth mater picks up about three maybe four yards on the play yeah Ruth mad has been a real in key player for them this year she came from the Birmingham Lions she's a six-time UK champion she led their team with 15 touchdowns this year just a really fast back great speed and great cutbacks Boston really quick really quick to break huddle get back to the line then takes the snap throws it downfield she's got an open receiver as by Nikki she torched the divas last week for three touchdowns and off to a really good start tonight by Nikki all the way down to the 13 yard line gets another set of data games quick no huddle offense one receiver up top three down below Cahill looks for the pass pass this to number three pass well Pasquale breaks a couple tackles that's when of Boston's go to plays they love running that little screen doing a bubble screen tunnel screen get their blockers out in front and let those athletes make some plays take it down there by number 84 Cali War that's Angela been struck and away up the middle 22 she breaks the side thrown back for a loss of yards that's Ruth mana again on the carry takes them almost back to the line of scrimmage there so we're looking at third down and nine third down and eight they actually move the yardage marker there so they gave them an additional yard on the spot [Music] Cahill looks she's got three up top ash on the corner of the end zone adrian smith unable to come down with it but we've got a penalty on the play [Applause] see what the penalty is replay there so a defensive penalty give him 5 yards we play the down yeah basically that was a free play into the end zone fell incomplete no harm no foul Cahill third down and two hands off the ball number 22 Ruth Matt up breaking in touchdown for Boston flag on roadway again looks like we might have holding on a play you can see how Ruth Mota just sort of stuck in there right behind her offensive line and picked her way into the end zone yeah unfortunately that touchdown is not gonna count to Boston is gonna back up and have to replay that third down a third time at third and 13 now for Allison Cahill and the Renegades offense [Applause] she's got a single receiver up high three receivers down below Ruth mounted in the backfield with Cahill play clock counting down a little discussion on the nearside with Smith did you get the playoff on time Cahill throws one up in the air lobs it and there's that pressure we were talking about they've got to get pressure on Cahill good job they're getting to the quarterback she hits number 30 Aaron diat in the back Boston's gonna send out their field goal team one you gotta count this as a win for Kali holding them to a three point attempt on their first drive we got number 11 no excuse me kick is up and she splits the uprights so just like that number 28 for Boston renegades what's the ball up through the uprights and they take the early three to nothing lead with 1048 remaining in the first quarter well just like that this offense they're averaging 61 points per game so Cal has got to feel really good about holding into the three in this first series hit the ball back with the chance to get right back down the field and I do want to apologize I don't have that player listed on my roster giving her credit by name all you have to get a uniform check on that so just like that 1048 remaining in the first quarter here at RFK Stadium at the Colorado School of Mines and beautiful golden colorado we do apologize for the one hour late start we had some lightning storms moving through the area so Vanessa go get ready to kick off after Boston went down the field came away with the field goal but asses kick is up into the air [Music] [Applause] smart move Danny an end zone yeah Angela well she thought about whether or not she can run it back you know you obviously heard the coaching staff yelling at her to down the ball down at the ball and she caught that signal and that's exactly what things she did so cally war with their second possession of the game here 10:41 remaining in the first quarter down by three starting first and ten from their own 25-yard line Kelly hasn't been tested this year they haven't been really crushed into a situation where they're gonna be coming from behind and fighting from behind so I'm really curious to see how they come out start this game yeah and you'll Boston's fan base back home you know it's a late start there for them it's already 11 p.m. so it's gonna be a late night in Boston and Boston's used to that for championship team and their fans will be up watching I can tell you that it against receives the snap hands off to Wilson Wilson breaks up the side forced out of bounds by number 44 which would be Samantha Blume gain on the play of about five or six yards so it's gonna be second down in for for Callie wore there on the 31 yard line moving left to right across your screen we're in the white jerseys Boston renegades were in the red jerseys this evening wiggins got two receivers moving up top Lisa Kings kind of drifting up there to down below one in the backfield flag on the play balls handed off to number 24 Kylie Wilson and she's met by a swarm of renegade players after she gets about two yards on the play let's see what the flakes gonna be here threw the flag pretty early it's gonna be first down for Cali war Callie stain a little something off the edge getting a little forward movement on these jet sweeps so with that penalty of a fresh set of downs first in ten from the 37 yard line [Applause] Wiggins in the shotgun formation three receivers to the bottom one to the top [Applause] when he takes a pass throws it out there it's caught by Lisa Kate Lisa King gets a couple of yards she's taken down by number 44 for the Renegades Samantha Blum good job of getting that ball out Boston was coming on a blitz they had two players coming she's able to avoid the sack he's play for a first down Lisa Kate one of many players that 31 actually that returned excuse me I'm sorry 46% of the Cali War players were Los Angeles warriors players last year so they're used to playing against Boston in these championship games we get to the shotgun formation one receiver up top three down below blown running back behind her ball is snapped throwing up to the receiver up top falls incomplete intended there for number 86 Samantha step punch stepping shock excuse me good pressure by Vanessa go all over that gonna bring up third down in three here for Cali war me Kelly has to have some sort of satisfaction knowing that with Boston's first drive they held them to a field goal especially when you have a team like the Renegades that are averaging 61 points per game in this season yes that 61 points comes quickly at times too we get shotgun formation - up top - dumpling old lone back hands off breaks through a couple tackles that's number 26 destiny Yarborough gets the chains yeah that's a first down for galley war there you can see the power of destiny Yarborough MMA fight or she's just a beast came here from Fresno last year they really wanted to lock down a few pieces and they brought her in they brought in so so Roberson they brought in from San Diego that about Angela wells from Philadelphia at corner you know they're doing things to try to match up with whoever the beast from the east was going to come play than it was imagined is gonna be Boston or DC and they did what they could to try to match up with whoever came out of these all right different formation this time we have three up top one lone receiver down below witness takes the snap pitches the ball back number 26 being chased around that's Yarborough she loses yardage on that play bump six yard loss the abro is a little bit slow to get up right now yeah this Boston team went once you get that ball you just gotta go outside take you she had her blocked you know get your yard you can this Boston team is too disciplined to try to come back and go backwards yeah number two at 323 Spring gamble on the tackle there bringing Yarbrough down for that loss gonna bring up second down and 16 [Applause] [Music] three receivers up top Wiggins shotgun formation takes the snap looks to her right masses intended there for Robinson just out of her reach kind of a brave play when Robinson had double coverage there Robinson had both Creech and Gauss covering her as she was moving down the field yeah well Robinson's their leading receiver she's had 26 catches for 614 yards and 23 TDs on the year averaging twenty three point six yards per catch so they're definitely gonna try to find a way to get her the ball Kelly Ward breaks the huddle moves up to the line third down 16 yards to go it's like they gave them the yard on that last play so 30 15 actually quick throw there to Robinson Robinson means a lot so actors not gonna be enough but she gets them most of the yardage back looks like it's gonna be fourth down in about five yards Robinson had that she had her Banshee had momentum she just kind of stopped right here runner over I mean I know that Sally general the leading tackler in the Boston will militia but you gotta take her on head on and just dish it out yeah Ally general comes into this game was 73 tackles out the season ten of those four loss so she just continues to add to her amazing statistics that she's had this year [Applause] so Callie Ward gonna punt the ball away like great punt slips through the hands at number five shantia Creech now he's got it that's in it is it's Callie's ball Callie recovers slips slight rain falling here it is on the replay oh and she just got out of position was not balanced what did not have her body in front of that ball lucky break for Callie just what they needed and it's number 13 for Callie war Michele Keaney that drops in on that and we've got a timeout Boston [Applause] all right so I mean this is the break that Callie needed right here at Donna and we have light rain falling in the sky we obviously had the one hour lightning delay downpour for a while so the fields not going to be the most ideal with artificial turf though it should have proper drainage underneath it and right there we saw the punch go right through the hands at number five shantia Creek so what what's Callie gonna do here are they going to be able to capitalize on this opportunity as they are now looking at a first intense situation from Boston's 14 yard line that's really gonna be the question all night can they capitalize they need to capitalize if they don't Boston will capitalize on every opportunity that they get this is a great opportunity for Callie to put them behind I think for the first time all season well we're gonna find out right now number 8 Chantel Wiggins stays out onto the field with her team she's got three receivers to her left up top one receiver down below moving left to right across your television screen balls handed off they're handed off number 24 that of course is pilot Wilson picks up some yards Carly's definitely picked up that they want to attack Dawson off the edge so far all their successful run plays have been these sweeps coming up going laterally that plays not gonna count unfortunately Callie war had two players in motion at the same time one did not set before the other one moves that's a five-yard penalty so we're down to first and 15 for Wiggins and her team Chantell Wiggins shotgun formation she's got number 22 Robinson down below three receivers up top she's got Yarborough in the backfield with her balls handed balls handed off to Yarborough Yarborough gets a couple yards taken down by a number of Renegades players yeah she's really a power back and you can see where they can establish her they can really try to wear down this defense looking at her running over a big player like Jenna Roe and once again general leading tackle on the Boston team getting the tackle there as well so we're almost back to the original line of scrimmage before the penalty we're going to have second down and 12 from the 15-yard line here Cali war looking to get into the end zone four minutes and 48 seconds remaining in the first quarter of play Wiggins in the shotgun formation three receivers up top one receiver down below she's looking to pass she sees number 22 in the end zone Emma passes complete popped by number 22 Jamie Robinson for her 14th touchdown of the season and Kelly Ward is gained at the 1st quarter what a great release she threw that ball before Robinson had a chance to make her break just put it up right in a spot above the defender great job holding on coming down as she's get a little contact by Creech and based on the fact that they're huddling up here it's looking like Callie war is going to go for the two-point conversion one receiver down below again that's number 22 that just has a touchdown Jamie Robinson down below three receivers up top zebra motion that's number 24 in motion balls thrown to her number 20 for Kyle and Wilson not able to get it we had number five for the Renegades nexia Creech Creech is a ball hog they're lucky that's not two points the other direction alright was for 37 remaining Kelly up six to three we'll be right back on ESPN on this coverage of the 2019 women's football Lions Division one national championship welcome back to the 2019 WF a Division one National Championship presented by eight nation on ESPN well surprisingly enough Callie is ahead 6 to 3 with 437 remaining in this quarter so far Donna what do you feel about that well now we'll have the opportunity to see Boston play from down for the first time all season yeah I mean you look at Boston scoring this season and I mean you're only allowing 13 points per game and they've already done half of that in this first quarter breach on the return number 5 for Boston renegades picks up the ball after the kickoff breaks off to her left moving upfield finally forced out of bounds by number 41 for the Cal award that's Angela wells that forced her out in edna's 47 46 yard line shows could be first in 10 Boston renegades was 431 remaining in the first quarter yeah she's a good receiver and a runner and you see her right here get upfield good blocking sets up her block there general comes over gets another block and sets him up a good field position yeah it's time to gotten one more block there she probably would have picked up another 10 15 yards easily on that so now Cahill coming back onto the field for the first time in a while Cahill pitches it off to her right number 22 for Boston moving up there that's Ruth Matta manages to get about seven maybe eight yards on that play taken down by Kali Wars number 55 on the tackle that's Jeanette Gimenez so right away Boston keeping with their no huddle here Cahill shotgun formation pitches after her left this time that's number that's number 22 again that's gonna be a name you're gonna hear a lot tonight this Ruth mana this time she gets enough for the first down and she is forced out of Bounce at the 39 yard line Oh cally so Boston moving down the field now trying to get a quick answer for what Callie did to them a short time ago yeah and you really got to give it to that offensive line everybody getting on the horse is getting downfield a lot of running lanes for Mata Cahill shotgun formation three receivers to the bottom one to her right balls handed off the bottom again bottom met at the line of scrimmage and taken down that time by number three Lee Anne Marie Smith for cally war yes the Andrew Smith Smitty as they like to call her 18 tackles on the year and a stack she's been solid on defense good job they're making the stop yeah so this is gonna be an exciting possession here at second down seven yards to go Cahill takes the snap hands it off to Batta Batta spin move around the right side of the field takes to Kali lore players to pull her down in on that tackle there was number 80 Angela bans draw we've already mentioned her name once in the last possession yeah Angela band's first strong player she played with LA last year coming on really does a good job there getting up making that tackle alright so here we are Cahill looking at third down at six quick pass ooh the pass was intended for number 10 that's on Andrea Smith and unfortunately I don't think she knew the ball was coming to her at the time because it almost hit her in the backside well Michelle Kinney read that perfectly she jumped that route had she been a split second difference she might have picked six that which like came Hill staying in there gonna go for it here on fourth down and six ball set on the 35 yard line of Cali war trying to see what she's gonna do nine seconds left on the play one receiver up top takes the snap looks to the left and loses the ball downfield she's got three defense number 41 Angela wells Pass well the intended receiver and Kelly warp is going to take over on downs after a great defensive stance oh that's the player they went out and recruited so we got to porch last year at corner oh let's go get some guys brought in a speedy Angela wells from Philadelphia she played for Team USA solid player great job knocking down that pass two minutes and 33 seconds remaining in the first quarter of play Kali War takes over on their own 35-yard line woman left to right across the screen Chantel Wiggins in the huddle his already let her team down the field for one touchdown looking to extend their lead which is already the largest lead that anybody has had over Boston this entire season she has two receivers up top two receivers down below one low running back in the backfield checks her line ball is snapped Wiggins hands off instantly for Yarbrough Yarbrough goes straight up the middle multiple flags on the play got to be a facemask oh boy we had her helmet ripped off yep so helmet comes off there the referee not only threw his flag ended up throat excuse me the umpire not only threw his flag ended up throwing his hat as well which usually tells us there's multiple penalties on this play the officials get together they want to get the flavor cook all right here find out if the correct penalties have been assessed to the correct players that is not something you want to do you do not want to get the unsportsmanlike call [Applause] they're adding a couple seconds to the game clock you're going to reset it to 228 but yeah so it's gonna be first down still for Cali war seeing where they're finally gonna set the ball here should be about the same place yeah I was gonna say there should have been no movement but our down marker person was walking down the field there but you are correct it is gonna be first down the ball should actually be at the 35 yard line we'll see if they move it back an inch or two here two receivers up top two receivers down below Wiggins in the shotgun position pitches it to number 24 running off the Hale this [Applause] that's pilot loose [Applause] there another touchdown we do have a flag on the near side of the field here this is the touchdowns good old she made a nice cut bounced off of four Jer turned on the Jets let's see if this is yeah my gut tells me what that penalty markers gonna be for and if that's the case there's gonna be some upset coaches on the Cali war sideline and a young there we go so the touchdown is good and just like that we saw number 41 Angela wells into the end zone to increase Kelly for - excuse me Kelly wars lead to 12 to 3 right now as they're gonna line up and go for the two-point conversion again that they failed at on their first attempt yeah well that flag was the sideline getting too excited chasing that play down but Kelly actually goes for - more often than they kick extra points if tried to kick five extra points to see her the rest of the time they go for two we got two receivers up top two receivers down below you got destiny Yarborough at the back nothing going there so once again the two-point conversion attempt is no good for Kelly war but with two minutes and 15 seconds left in the first quarter they have opened up to a 12 to 3 lead over the reigning national champions Boston renegades about the start think that's catching a lot of people off-guard people were expecting fast and come out and just do it they thought all year and jump out to a big lead they said no we're here to play tonight we might be undersized we might have less players than Boston we might not have this many coaches but we're gonna come out here and we're gonna give everything and we're not gonna lay down let's see how long they can hold out this pace and hold out this level of play and intensity throughout this game because we know Boston they're not going anywhere when we talked before the game that one of the keys for Boston in this game was to be prepared for the unexpected obviously at this point the unexpected is beating Boston absolutely and you know Kelly was also installing some new plays this week working on putting some things in trying to make sure they have some things that Boston hasn't seen on tape that they're gonna throw at them but the bottom line is players got to make plays and they got to execute Lisa King set to kick off for Cali war ball takes a nice bounce picked up by number five for Boston that's Chantel Creech she's moving up the field breaks a couple tackles and finally take it down at the 44 yard line which for a ball that they expected to go out of bounds that's actually a great return yeah it looked like she almost gave up on that play and then it bounced right back toward her so in two minutes and seven seconds remaining renegades they send Allison Cahill and the rest of their offense back onto the field to try to answer for what has now been two possessions with two touchdowns for Callie war three receivers up top one receiver down below blown running back in the backfield Allison Cahill shotgun position running back moves up top that's number 22 Reef monorun ZUP top passes throat hot over the center pass was complete to number 87 that's Emily by Nikki picks up nine yards on the play going to be second down at one Boston continuing with their no huddle offense and lar Kali changing up their defense a little bit running this four to five a little nickel trying to keep up with the speed of Boston's receivers Boston three receivers down low hands occupied breaks a tackle spins around a player finally gets dragged down by number three yeah Andrew Smith good job making that tackle she hasn't backed out of there and she's off to the races Banas Rondo is enough to get the chains moving so it is gonna be a fresh set it down for the Renegades with a minute 94 making it the first quarter they're looking at 1st down and 10 from the Cali War 40 yard line Allison Cahill shotgun position all alone the old backfield with her four receivers up top one down below ball is snapped Cahill throws the ball quick to by Nikki again by Nikki runs into three Cali War players manages to pick up about seven yards on the play is gonna be second down and three my nikki just doing a nice job of finding a little hole in that zone sitting down making herself available as a big target she had a huge playoff game against the Divas coming out with two catches early in this game Boston seems to be finding their rhythm now with 34 seconds left remaining in the first quarter down by nine points Cahill wasting the snap throws it quickly intercepted ball is picked off by number two three Robertson for Cali war and once again Kali's defense comes up strong and Boston at this time has to be wondering what can you do differently well that's the other player Cali way out and recruited we need another corner go get so so Robinson from San Diego come in making an impact both their big corners that they brought in have had a impact on this game so far so it 22 seconds remaining in the first quarter Cali finds themselves up by 9 points a fresh set of downs it's 1st down and 10 from their own 34 yard line really unfamiliar territory for Boston here Chantel Wiggins in the huddle going over with her team what she wants them to do here Cali war 46% of these players as we stated were in this game last year where they lost to the Renegades when they were the Los Angeles warrior she has one receiver up top three receivers down below one running back in the backfield with her she waits the snap balls handed off to number 24 Kyla Wilson Kyla Wilson breaks up the left side of the field forced out of bounds after she gains about five yards and Kidd blocking up front as destiny Yarborough let her get to the edge so 12 seconds remaining in the first quarter of the game here once again Kali wore wearing me white jerseys they are the away team for this game Boston renegade in the red jerseys they are the whole team Kelly Ward that's the end of the first quarter just like that our first quarter comes to an end and something that we didn't expect to see was Boston to be down by 9 points with Kali war with 12 and these Boston renegades with three points we'll be right back after this for for 2019 Women's Football Alliance Division one national championship action [Music] welcome back to the ESPN coverage to 2019 Women's Football Alliance division 1 championship where Cali Warriors up over Boston at the end of the first quarter by a score of 12 to 3 pantless no time to Pat Brown on the sidelines I tell you listen anything is expected in a championship game Cali revenge's on their mind from last year they're up 12 to 3 Boston uncharacteristically turning the ball over two times in the first quarter Kali's capitalizing and looking to do some more damage here in this first half all right Thank You Pat and right away Chantel Wiggins a Cali War hands the ball off they're able to pick up about five yards on that play looks like closer to four from my vantage point so it's third down and five according to the official scoreboard here 14 22 in the second quarter loose Cali team is averaging forty seven point one points per game that's third in the league in scoring behind Boston and a DC diva so they are on it tonight they are really on track with what they set out to do what they would hoping they could do and kudos to them for really coming out here and just stepping out strong and giving the boss and kind of a smack in the mouth to start this game right and Cali war is elected to use their first timeout of the half here right now so with 14 19 remaining they are up biased by nine points right now and donít you and I talked a little bit before the game about the caliber of player that both of these quarterbacks were I mean they both one offensive MVP for their league this year I mean what can you tell us about that me what do you have about these players well Cahill in her 16th year she just keeps getting better every year you know we see a we see her a lot out in DC with the DC divas but over here on the Cali side she has about 10,000 passing yards career passing yards and a hundred-fifty career touchdowns she's getting the job that has been doing it for quite some time as well alright so Cali Juarez three receivers up top one receiver down below looks like Yarbrough in the backfield Wiggins passes off passes intended for number 22 that time Boston had never drawn man deep ball is overthrown to Robinson's go it's gonna be fourth down in five four calli war here with 14 14 remaining in the second quarter in a lead of 12 to 3 it looks like they are gonna at least line up to punt the ball Renegades have number five shantia Creech waiting for the punt ball is snapped low punt and that one is gonna bounce out of bounds at about the 25 yard line though Boston's gonna take over and we're gonna have to see what Cahill can do now after seeing the last two times her team was on offense turning the ball over well these corners are doing a great job of playing defense but this Boston team they have they have their go-to they love running those bubble screens they usually throw about 20 of them a game they're gonna keep getting out on that and they're gonna get mad at going they've got more running backs we haven't seen Angela Pasquale yet she's been a beast all year they've got a lot of weapons that we haven't seen much of yet so Allison Cahill comes in off the sidelines she's got three receivers to her right down on the bottom of your screen run receiver up top she's got a lone running back in the backfield she waits in the shotgun formation for the snap play clock down to eight seconds the ball is snap paint hill throws the ball she's looking upfield ball was intended for number ten Adrian Smith and I don't know it doesn't look like Adrian Smith put a reach out to pull that ball in well I think Adrian Smith was expecting it past to be inside of her and Cahill kind of threw it back to her outside shoulder she looks like she might've just lost that ball yeah she's looking she had her beat inside so she was kind of looking inside quarterback saw that there was a safety over the top and wanted to throw it away from that safety and not get another pick yeah so unfortunately there your receiver in your quarterback had different views on what was going on Cahill with one receiver to her bottom three receivers to her top ball is handed off to number 20 mata right away mata breaks the tackle spins around and boom on the 35 yard line like Kali Wars number 87 there and that's Mary Rose Roche coming back from her first game after being psychic all season from her knee injury last year she's been just itching to get back out there you'll often see her running back today she's in on defense as well right away quick no huddle offense loss of yardage on the play looks like they got back to the original line of scrimmage there so it's gonna be second down and 10 13:29 in the second quarter here Bama Chardonnay Jenkins defensive line in on that tackle monta breaks upfield to the right day Hill takes the snap maybe give her one yard there so we're gonna be looking at third down and eight Boston came firing off that ball cutting everybody everyone kind of stunned for a moment there comes the pursuit finally off the edge Cahill six feet tall 175 pounds out of Boston Massachusetts came right out of high school Oxbridge High School looking to lead her team down the field like she did last season when they won the national championship in Atlanta Georgia takes the snap throws it to Monta Monta move it upfield spins off to the left she gets a good block she gets another block she finally gets brought down by number 87 again and once again that's Mario's broach on the tackle for the Renegades Breanna you notice here just great blocking out front all those receivers getting blocks they'll miss tackle there another missed tackle finally Mary Rose Rhodes coming over at the plane hey Hill takes the snap she looks up feel the passes throat and the pass is caught by number three pass well and name we haven't had an opportunity to mention yet and that's a huge first down for the Renegades as she gets them all the way down the field the 29 yard line of Kali War as well one of their top receiver she had 23 catches for 450 yards this season and eight touchdowns by three catches in their playoff game against the Divas pace and decides to use their second timeout their feed team meets on the field decide what to do I mean we've seen all of a sudden we've seen excuse me we see mata break through on a great run and for the first time we see pass well his name mentioned as she gets a great yardage and moves the team in additional 30 yards down the field yeah well when Boston moves they move quick and when they score they score with a vengeance and so this Cali team just wants to slow them down talk about it see if they can put a little more pressure on Cahill which what's gonna help you know and when you're running a no-huddle offense like we've seen Boston doing so far this evening you have no choice in this situation but to call a timeout because they're running the ball they're passing the ball they're doing all those things that have gotten them all this yardage that they've had this season averaging 457 yards per am yeah and by not huddling doesn't allow the players on defense to rotate get fresh legs in so Boston two receivers down below Cahill takes the snap hands off number 22 mata mata spins through tackle and is met at the 25-yard line by number 56 for cali war be D'Angelo wells and also number 56 Ashley Hayes in on that tackle as well picking up a few yards on that play we're looking at a second down at about five situation here second and six is the official measurement Cahill waits for the snap shotgun formation one running back in the backfield with her mana decides to move up field lines up behind pass intended for mana picks up the ball running down the field breaks past the tackle gets enough for another first down as she has tackled by number 87 once again Roche but not before at another first down the ball moves well Kelly had a shot missed tackle returned a good position right here she'd come up just little arm tackle there didn't break down and mata really makes a lot of people look silly when she runs the ball all handed off to mata mata finds a hole on the left gets a good block breaks through finally taking down once again by Roche that's the name that we're gonna be constantly saying and it is going to be a first and goal situation for Boston here I'm sorry yep they are gonna give him the first end goal from the bout these third yard line Cahill hands the ball off to mata mata finds a hole to left takes a block good defense shutting that down that looks like 26 Yarbrough modest getting beaten up in these last few plays but right now she's what's keeping Boston moving and with that Cali gets caught with too many players on the field really got to hand it to Cahill she probably did what we've seen Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers do time and time again they count the defenders on that field and they snap that ball and get that extra yardage truly receivers to Cahill's right she's got one receiver up top mana in the backfield with her weights to the snap shotgun formation here ball is snapped she looks to her right passes the ball and that's going to be a touchdown throwing the number 10 Adrian Smith Boston finally gets one zone decreasing the lead Valley War sniff just runs a nice hitch route turned around in front of the offender makes a great play Cahill right on Act's a little out route [Applause] so we've got number 26 Vanessa go lining up for the extra point here for the Renegades to get them within two points of Kali War and the kick is up and it is good and I stand corrected that was actually number 11 Sara Tully a wide receiver for the Renegades then put that extra point in there and with that 1024 remaining in the first half Kali's lead now is only by two as Boston puts one into the end zone and gets the score 10 for the Renegades 12 for Cali war this is the kind of pace that Kali is looking for they've slowed the game down and you've only got our 1210 score coming here in the little the second quarter at this point sometimes Boston's already scored 20 30 points in the game so really a well-managed start to this game well when you look at the games they've played this year I mean 61 points 68 points 68 points 91 point 63-62 and then 66 in the national conference championship game over the DC divas they obviously usually have at least twice if not three times as many points at this point in the game already so you really have to hand it to the Cali war defense a team that's typically only allowing 4.4 points per game and they are ranked first in the wf8 defense for that yeah as we look at Boston kickoff known for just kicking a lot of really hard line drive balls trying to get funny bounces kind of like quasi onside but not really oh there's an onside kick finesse to go with the onside kick and it rolls out of bounds slag on that play where that ball went out of bounds and Cali war came away with a lucky break on that instance right there but they've got to be expecting that if they've watched any film on Boston they know this Boston team they put that ball in the ground they're really well coached on special teams cliff Ashley been working with them just really has a good time call the play all right so Kelly wore first in ten from their own 45 yard line gonna see what Chantel Wiggins does here she's already moved her team down the field with great success twice she recover from boston's touchdown here and get her team back at that six point seven point cushion that they had just moments ago Chantel Wiggins shotgun formation she's got one receiver to her right three down below to her left single running back in the backfield with her looks to be number 26 Yarborough Boston calling a timeout the Boston is in their first timeout it was that that mean Donna let's let's look at let's compare this to what we saw last year last year you and I had the opportunity to work together for the first time down in Atlanta Georgia at Kennesaw University when we saw basically these two exact ain't teams playing against each other a much different game this year than what we saw last year especially the team from the west coast well just a little postgame into one of their corners for LA last year hurt her knee didn't tell if anybody so she's out there playing on it just a little injured she gets torched a little bit you know they really did a good job of pulling in some key players in the spots where they knew they had weak spots and when you have a couple weak spots on defense Boston immediately is going to find them now those spots are no longer weak spots are actually strains for this Kali team and you're seeing what they can do with just adding a couple key players as well as a power running back they can just sort of run people over and wear down that defense all right so we come out of the Boston's timeout there ten twenty four remaining in the first half tally with 12 Renegades with ten Chantel Wiggins takes the snap looks to her left throws the ball caught over the winner by number nine Lisa King picks up about 70 yards on the play looks like it's going to be second down and three for Kali warrior elisa king is the third all-time theirs receiver leading receiver in women's football period not in any league but she has been playing this game for a long time been working hard out and Fresno now playing for LA and then Cali running this league just doing a great job of come up making a catch when she needed it Wiggins in the shotgun formation he's got a receiver split two up top to down below Yarborough in the backfield with waits for the snap hands after Yarborough Yarborough straight up the middle breaks through a couple tackles finds a hole gets enough for a Cali war first down it's gonna be 1st down and 10 from Boston's 40-yard line she's just a beach you cannot arm tackle destiny yabo 1 2 3 4 finally the fifth player takes her down getting run over and that's bloom samantha blooms pretty good corner but no match for destiny Yarborough coming straight at her from Tufts University Chantel Wigan shotgun formation three receivers to her left one up top to her right y'all bro in the backfield with her balls handed off to number 24 Kellan Wilson Wilson moves up top decides to go back down gets taken down for a loss a loss of two yards on that play for number 24 Kyla and Wilson I really don't recommend turning around and going backwards and laterally on this Boston team they're too disciplined they do not usually get out of position she was right here just take it up get what you got I mean in her defense though she was being chased down by number 52 alie general and I know I would not want to be taken down by general yeah I got it alright 8:30 remaining clock is running through two receivers up top to down below Yarborough in the backfield with Wiggins Wiggins takes the snap throws the ball she's got King has an intended receiver flag on the play was being held by a number 14 Andrea full more full more head inside position but she had her hands on her hip had a little contact official pulling out the flag now for those of you that have never watched women's professional football before and are wondering why it's only a 15-yard penalty and not a penalty at the spot of the foul is they actually use a modified version of the NCAA rule book here as opposed to the NFL rulebook so that is the reason for that 15-yard penalty gives Kelly wore first down in ten from Boston's 27 yard line Wiggins in the shotgun formation she hands it off to Yarborough dobrow straight up the middle and she is going to be forced backwards by a number of Renegades players including number 67 kristen sarsen nothing doing that time the center of that Boston defense all hats to the ball select get that yardage there is gonna be nullified she made it back to the original line of scrimmage and Kelly wore actually has a player kind of limping off the field right now definitely upset that she has to sit out this play that's Jamie Robinson their tight end leading receiver well no friend that's Francine Lou excuse me offensive line all right Kelly wore one receiver to her left Wiggins has three receivers to her top [Applause] and a timeout Callie so with 7 minutes and 30 seconds left in the half Callie Warren now has used their third and final timeout of this half as they are moving down the field with 2nd down and 10 from Boston's 27 yard line I wouldn't typically want to have used all my timeout outs with 730 left but this is a really critical possession for them they're up by two points they have a chance to come down here and score they really want to make sure they've got the best play and they got the best personnel and they know what you want to do to attack this Boston defense yeah this Boston defense as we've already talked about a little bit earlier they're allowing 13 points per game on average so Cali is right at that average point right now with their 12 points that they've scored against this defense of the renegades timeout is over Chantel Wiggins in her huddle discussing with her team what she's gonna do she has a second down and 10 situation here ball on Boston's 27 yard line huddle is broke looks like they have one longer receiver to her left three receivers to her right Yarbrough in the backfield Boston's plain man coverage ball is snapped ball is released that time was intended for number 86 svetlana stefan Chuck great job of picking up that blitz letting Wiggins get that pass off little back shoulder past a little bit too outside for the receiver to get her hands on it when you think about this Boston defense while they might only be giving up that one you said 14 13 points per game to the divas they gave up an average of 28 points a game and the divas are the second leading scorer in the league right here Callie's a third leading scorer so when they're playing these tougher teams they have been giving up the points teams have been scoring on them they are not infallible they are not perfect and Kelly's taking advantage of their weaknesses so far nobody Wiggins takes the snap throws the ball up in the air and in that situation there it looked like Wilson was expecting the ball to land in her arms unfortunately she did not turn around to see the pass had been thrown well I think Wiggins saw that big blitz coming Yarbrough picked it up but she didn't set her feet she just kind of threw that up there a little bit errant throw 7 21 remaining here in the first half gonna bring up a fourth down big play here for Callie defense has been playing as well as Callie's has up until that last Boston Drive why not go for it here on fourth down and 10 wiggins takes the snap its downfield she's got her receiver open mascot math [Applause] experts 24 Wilson with the reception down to the one-yard line it's gonna be first and goal for Kelly War I Wilson she's a rookie number 24 out of Los Angeles making a key play there on fourth down you know she was the third leading receiver on the team throughout the season with 330 yards three touchdowns including and she it was averaging 30 yards per reception and she showed it right there with a 29 yard reception catch yeah just great timing on that play put that ball right in her hands one receiver to her left two receivers up top balls handed off to Yarborough Yarborough pushes not quite enough looks like they're gonna give her about a half a yard on that place so it's gonna be second down and goal and we do have an injured Cali war player on the sidelines trying to figure out who that is looks like it might be number 56 Ashley Hayes can't really tell at this point it might also be an injury or something on the point of attack looks like there's two players both a Boston and a Cali player not not moving too much castle one of those players making their way off the field is indeed number 56 Ashley making her way for Cali here on to the sidelines she's got a little bit of limp we still have those players laying on the field oh and that's dawn nice Todd Peterson coming off number 66 just a power center played with me on Team USA must have had some head-to-head contact cuz it looks like they're looking at the head of the Boston defender who's laying on the ground Don Peterson offensive line 510 hundred ninety five pounds just a great teammate came out here from Chicago played with that great Chicago team for a number of years played on the national team hope the she's all right she really is the horse that makes this offense go at center so with six minutes and 25 seconds remaining in the second quarter Cali war waiting to see how their players doing down there on the sidelines Boston's number 64 Shawna sagres tending to her cross field rival but one thing that all these women have in common is they are sisters when they meet each other staying at the host hotel when you run into these women in the lobby it doesn't matter if they were with Detroit or whether they were with the Vixen or whether they were with the Divas they embrace each other they love each other and they're all after the same thing for the growth of women's football in this country so they truly do care for one each other absolutely and that's just the great thing about sport and not only just being a competitor but being a sister and this is a sisterhood not only here in the states but really once they started doing those World Championships having the national teams come together playing in Sweden 2010 they played in Finland 2013 and then in Canada in 2017 those chances for all these players from around the world to play against each other to get to know each other those have been very instrument Oh games and key points in the development of women's football getting it to the point now where we have thousands of women playing this game we've got 20 countries playing women's tackle football and it's just really kind of taken off across the country the Boston sideline you see you see players all taking a knee and respect for the injured player on the field some of them holding hands some of them praying in silence all of them wanting to make sure that this player gets up and gets herself off the side off to the sidelines under her own power well yeah a lot of concern for a teammate out there and when you have a neck or head injury it's something so important to make sure you get it right having had a serious neck injury myself and so many concussions that I can't count it's really critical that they provide her with a proper medical care at this point this was gonna kind of sit here and watch what's going on on the sidelines watching the medical staff tend to the players down on the field you know that's one thing that we can you know there's always good medical staff I on the outter during the regular season work with the Minnesota vixen and not only when we're on the road do we have the host teams medical staff on-site we bring our own medical staff with us and we've been known to do acupuncture on the sideline you know obviously there's the normal wrapping of the fingers there's the concussion protocol things of that nature and that's actually what they're doing right here is they're making sure that everything is okay they don't want to make any unjust decisions here because ultimately the players safety is the number one priority absolutely I think we're throw down to pat on the sideline all right with that we have an update from Pat Brown Pat concussion was a head-on head collision but the trainer from the Madison blaze came on the sideline told me that they're looking at the shoulder area it might be a shoulder stinger but they're gonna check it out and make sure that everything's all right before they pick her up and take it to the sideline all right Thank You Pat for that update it's always important to as we've stated already Donna do to play it safe you don't want to move a bone and make anything yeah I mean I personally watched my son break his collarbone twice in soccer one time you didn't even bother telling us about it hey I'm right there I am guilty of not disclosing injuries and playing through many times that maybe I shouldn't have played but that was my choice and you know that's what a lot of these women do out here you know do you got to give it to the medical staff that you were talking about in fact did all right so with that we are going to take a break you are watching the 2019 WFA division 1 championship where the Cali War is up by a score of 12 to 10 over the Boston renegades we will be right back welcome back to the 2019 Women's Football Alliance Division One Championship presented by Adan nation during that injury timeout we are happy to report that Destiny's Yarborough did make it off the field under her own power for the Cali War where they're continuing to look at her on the sidelines but as I say that she came off the field under her own power which is always great to see so now Chantel Wiggins second and goal from the 2 yard line balls handing off to number 34 but there is a flag on the play I have not seen an official touchdown call yet from anybody and there's the touch 34 Lucretia Lane with the touchdown for Kali or and that flag was thrown immediately kind of thinking you might be in the neutral zone there yes we'll see it probably was a free play see what the official calls it here and there you go yup so that was a free play result of the players to touchdown so number 34 Lucretia Lane comes in for Yarborough who was out with an injury and instantly shows the reason that they supped her in and she gets that all-important touched yeah that's a big touchdown for Callie going for two again Chantel Wiggins shotgun formation two receivers up top throws it up top looking for number 22 and just overthrows number 22 Jamie Robinson but with that cally once again is up by a complete possession a score of 18 to 10 or six minutes and 20 seconds remaining in the first half this game yeah and just looking back to that time out that they called earlier in this quarter settling their team down really locking into what they had to do there's Don Peterson you know she got hurt on that play she's gonna suck it up and keep going as long as she can pass off to this Cali war team for the effort they've put out so far this game yeah so Kelly Warren Chantel Wiggins with the cornerback here has driven her team down into the end zone three times in the first half of this game already so only the DC divas have scored more plant more points on the Renegades this season so Cali war can they continue the streak and they keep the lead they have not been behind this entire game so far Lisa King ready to kick off the ball Boston renegades two players waiting back to receive goes up high number five plenty of reach with the ball shantia moves up the middle breaks past the 45 yard line gets a block hits home to the 52 yard line 48 yard line of Cali war on that return and there was just a big block on that play by general levelled somebody I like the idea of trying to kick it toward the sideline but if you're gonna kick it there and you're gonna kick it out of bounds just kick it out of bounds she's been getting that ball up past the 50 good field position for Boston with six minutes left to go in the half so Allison Cahill first and ten from Cali Wars 49 yard line 6 minutes and 10 seconds remaining in the first half of this game down by 8 points see burning Crawford the assistant head coach and offensive coordinator getting his play call in Cahill has one receiver to her left Adrian Smith two receivers to her right balls handed off to my right away number 22 that's Ruth Matta a name that we've called many times and there she picks up another four yards going to be second down and six Angela wells and fans train on that tackle while they showing that there are a real physical team Boston keeping with their no huddle pistol formation Cahill awaits the snap hands it off to mana right away gets a couple key blocks up front finds a hole gets through for the first down and finally taken down at Kali 35 yard line that's enough for another first out Boston lapping up in there remember three that's our Stephanie Pasquale good job lead blocking up there for Mata once again same formation is on the previous play one receiver up top two receivers down below mata in the backfield with Cahill waits the snap this time Cahill decides to throw she's got her receiver up top that's number 10 with a completion to number 10 Adrian Smith and it's gonna be a first and goal situation for the Renegades from Kelly Wars 5-yard line Adrian Smith his beat Angela wells straight off that ball great pass to the outside shoulder over the top no chance to make a play on that and it's too bad that she fell over her own feet or she would have been into the end zone there Gayle takes the snap hands off to mata mata gets taken down instantly in the backfield by what looks like number 56 Ashley Hayes yeah that's big Ashley Hayes in there making that stop loss of yardage on the play is gonna be second and goal from about the eight seven and a half eight yard line gaile awaits the snap she's got two receivers up top two receivers to her right Boston in the red jerseys we're gonna watch for the call there and that touchdown is good they're going to give the touchdown to number ten Adrian Smith for the Renegades and Adrian Smith is slow to get up herself after holding out with that ball across the pylon well the defender was giving a lot of cushion there in the end zone she comes back makes the play good hit great hit by the defender actually looks like it might have injured Smith a little bit well she sticks that hand out over the goal line if she's following back just has the presence to stick her arm out get in for the touchdown Allyson Cahill took the catch excuse me took possession for Boston here's a replay here we can see her reaching out right there she hits the pylon obviously by a rule the pylon is the goal and that's what happens here so the touchdown will stand for Boston I was Angela wellthen on that tackle Smith still being attended to on the sidelines gives Boston an opportunity to huddle up four minutes and 20 seconds remaining here in the first half of the women's Division one national championship game Women's Football Alliance here in beautiful Golden Colorado a mark a stadium at the Colorado School of Mines I mean when the Sun was going down before the storms rolled in we had all the mountains in front of us I mean I have never had a more beautiful view from a press box it's so beautiful up here and there's Adrian Smith getting up just a tough competitor in her 13th season so Boston going for the two-point conversion here looking to tie the game and just like that looks like was that general that went in for the two points that was general and all the sudden we have a game again Boston ties up the game 18 points where both the Renegades and the Cali war with four minutes and 20 seconds remaining here in the first half well definitely can see a little bit of a momentum swing as Boston starts to get into their rhythm there's such a good offensive team that you can't imagine they'll be out of rhythm all game but the way this LA or SoCal de Cali defense is played it done a pretty good job you look at how a general is still on the sidelines without her helmet I don't know I do see you're putting your mouth guard in so they might be looking at her trying to clear her to go back in well you know she's an MMA fighter she's two-in-one an MMA fight she told me yesterday I'm actually gonna start my professional boxing career if people can't hit me in the face I'm just gonna leash my hands she's a fighter she's a warrior she can get back out there she will be so number 26 for Boston getting ready Vanessa go to kick it off to Cali beautiful kick gonna go out the back of the end zone here over the head of number three Leandre Smith's for Cali war and it looks like we see Yarborough coming back onto the field so she obviously has been cleared to return to the game and this is exciting news for Cali war and their fans knowing that their leading rusher is back into the game we and it's really important because our second leading rusher Alexis Snyder is out with a torn meniscus had surgery did not make the trip this back home watching cheering on her team so they are down or running back they're really good to have Yarborough back so Wiggins breaks the huddle she's got three receivers up top one receiver down below Yarborough into the backfield with her once again ball hand it off to number 24 Wilson Wilson gets a loss of one on the play and is once again taken down by a bunch of Renegades we got another injured player it looks like once again we might have had a collision between members of opposing teams imagine that well you see Boston doing a good job you see how Callie's sort of attacking this edge Boston there's a good job of just putting an extra person up there on that edge seeing what Kelly's been doing not so much going on that play so the player running off to the sidelines for Boston was number 72 that was Laura Pula so she checks out still got a Kelly Ward player laying on the field it looks like they are checking on her knee looks like that left knee or ankle and this out this Cali team is small to begin with they can't afford to have a lot of players go down so I mean here we are we are tied again for the first time since early in the first quarter when Boston was up three to nothing after that Cali marched down the field consistently three touchdowns to show for it unfortunately extra points and two-point conversions did not pan out to be successful for them Boston now answers and we're back with 18 points her team with 408 remaining here in the first half yeah when you look at Boston one of their advantages is really they're kicking game they've got a strong kicking game not only on kickoffs but on extra points and as you can see there they can go 4-2 when they need it as well Kali on the other hand has not kicked extra points as often they've consistently gone for two and that's been part of their game strategy so I kind of expect to see them continue to do that here against Boston tonight you know one thing that we have yet to mention in our broadcast this evening is the mile-high blaze and their great job that they have done posting this national championship this year here in Golden Colorado yeah I got to give credit and thanks to the mile-high blaze for the hospitality all the work that they're doing all their players have put in rotations here work in security work in different aspects of the game supporting what needs to happen for this national championship game to be underway it has a lot of work that goes into volved into these games and that is number 24 Wilson for Cali war being helped off the field so as their third leading receiver we're gonna see what they're gonna do now Chantel Wiggins shotgun formation two receivers up top two receivers down below Yarbrough in the backfield oops - pass pass intended that time for number 13 Michele Keaney falls incomplete coverage by number 5 for Boston shantia Creech Boston had a lot of pressure coming off the edge she had to kind of get rid of that ball quickly just a little overthrown this is kind of a critical time right here this last 3-4 minutes of a game I've been in Boston in games where we've had one or two scores happened in that last two minutes of the half and that can really turn the tide going into the half time it was three minutes and 58 seconds here game tied up there is still plenty of time for either one of these teams to get into the end zone two receivers on the bottom two receivers up top flag on the play looks to be a false start and if I had to make an educated guess I'd say that false starts I guess number 13 Michele Keaney and with the excitement of the play before that one it was overthrown and she was incomplete one is attended for her she wanted to make mood this time the excitement as you stated got a little bit away from her there you can see in the replay two steps before the snap [Music] all right so we're back shotgun formation Yarborough in the backfield two receivers up top two receivers down below Wiggins passes the ball into no-man's land when I actually was trying to get King King was running a little in or out amongst four or five defenders lucky that wasn't picked off so we're looking at fourth down and 15 for the Cali war with three minutes and 53 seconds left [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Kalli war making sure they have everybody they need out on the field [Music] high punt going towards Boston sideline takes up Boston bounce caught on the fly my number for Satori a bell and she gets taken down at the 26 yard line and Pat has an update on the injury let's send it down to patch for an update yeah the update on miss Wilson number 24 is a high ankle sprain they're gonna reevaluate it try and tape her up give us some tests see if she can run on it put some pressure on it and not gonna come back for the first half they're gonna be evaluate in halftime and see what you can do in the second half Thank You Pat so it's good to know that it's nothing overly serious always nice to know that it's something that there's a possibility of the player returning to the game Boston now looking at first and 10 Cahill takes the snap Cahill throws it downfield she sees number 15 wide open number 15 I'm sorry it was not wide open that was Catherine tile and ER I was good coverage by the Andrew Smith so it's gonna be second down in ten from the 27 yard line no huddle offense continuing for Allison pay Hill and the Renegades always taking out one of their DBS and put an extra lineman have five lineman and now she was up top quick toss to number 11 that pass is complete to Sarah Thole not enough for a first down but definitely picks up some good yardage there it's going to be third down and about five yards to go for the Renegades [Applause] Cahill one receiver left three receivers to her right she's got number 22 in the backfield hands off to number 22 mata while it breaks the tackle up to the left finds an open hole gets to another tackle and in the end zone for her second touchdown of the game for Boston [Applause] Wow well you see a right off the back guarantee a center leading the way up on that block in the end of the wells looked like she might have had a play on it look at the eight getting up in there then right here missed tackle the speed of Mata is really what surprises people they think they've got an angle on her and she's just gone on that whole left side of the field it was a result of missed tackles that got her in to the end zone extra point is up flag on the play looks like we're gonna have a false start against Boston [Applause] so that's gonna back them up five yards [Music] number eleven Tsereteli hopes to increase Boston's lead and just like that from coming down by eight points now they are up by seven points and this four is 25 for the Boston renegades 18 for the Cali war with 303 remaining here in the Women's Football Alliance Division one national championship well interestingly enough Ruth Mata preseason had reached out to the diva she's looking to come to this country she'd been playing for the Birmingham Lions she's won six championships in the UK wanted to come here and play in the US we were just going through an ownership change having a lot of things happen did it really have the opportunity to bring her here to DC and instead she ends up in Boston ends up killing us in the playoff game and getting work done here in the championship game as well so just like that all of a sudden the tables have turned and the Renegades fighting themselves up by a touchdown as number 26 Vanessa go is set to kick it off and once again the ball goes out the back of the end zone number three Landry Smith does not try to recover the ball so it's gonna be first and ten for Cali war with three minutes and three seconds remaining in the first half of play well see if Kelly can really stay focused and lock in and a three minute drive go down and tie this game at half time they've been pretty cool calm and collected this game so far I don't see any panic on that team they're gonna come out let's see what they do to get this ball established in this last Drive mouth definitely a big disadvantage Kali war has they have three minutes on the clock but they are out of timeouts right now which we're gonna now if those earlier timeouts in the first quarter come back to hurt them here can you bring one more player on the field you gotta watch that play clock as it clicks down towards five seconds remaining Wiggins waits the snap flags on the play looks like a false start that'd be number 24 island wilson give them a snap direction which is a rule we don't call we don't see too many times on number 91 the center you know that's one way for up and put it back down three receivers up top for Cali one receiver down low Wiggins Lions up under center hands the ball off to Yarborough well Boston had everybody up on that box and they were all coming hard not much room to run on that play gets back to the original line of scrimmage gonna be second down in 15 clock continues to run 2:38 remaining in the first half Gally finds themselves down by seven points Wiggins breaks huddle she's got one receiver near left three receivers up top to her right moving right to left across your screen in the white jerseys [Music] [Applause] hmmm not quite sure what Kelly's trying to accomplish right now what just doesn't look good they they aren't getting any push upfront everybody's packed in time that's Boston packing right and there's just nowhere to go and with that Boston elects to use their third and final timeout of the half because with third down and it looks like about 17 yards to go Boston is fairly certain that they're gonna get this ball back with short field to move and increase their lead this is really dangerous time for Cali I've been in game four Boston was just right in this pot if you think you've got them and boom that quick score comes not quick score cones and you see why they're scoring 61 points a game because it could just happen like that [Music] championship game that happened last night here when Nevada came out and in the fourth quarter they were exchanging touchdowns back and forth with the Orlando anarchy congratulations to the Nevada storm on the ultimate victory in that Division three championship earlier today we saw the st. Louis slam shut out the Detroit Dark Angels for the division 2 national championship game and then this afternoon the National Conference beat the American Conference in the all-american game quite a weekend of football Wiggins takes the snap looks to her right ball was intended for candy King is looking for a flag but she's not getting one she feels that she was being held by number 14 Andrea Fulmar well she caught her ran right into her and stopped so whether she was being held her to stop who knows [Music] pick up the receiver on this replay well there was contact while the ball is in the air guess it's no foul so it's gonna be fourth down and 15 is the official mark here cally really needs to make sure they put this ball out of Bounce number five shantia Creech stands on Callie's 45 yard line awaiting the punt well lisa king with the punt and it goes out of bounds right at about I would say the 23 24 yard line well you know they wanted them to kick it out of Bounce maybe you hope they'd get a few more yards on it but Boston's put up in a really good opportunity here to come back and really take a to score elite after being down this whole half so it's gonna be first down in ten for Boston from Kelly's 25-yard line and there's Petey walking off the field needing help Allyson Cahill comes in brings the play with her from the sidelines she's got three receivers to her left lone running back in the backfield looks to throw deep [Applause] and ass pass was intended therefore number 87 Emily by Nikki and she gets the flag well defender did a nice job of just trying to throw herself at that ball she knew she'd been beat just didn't quite time it out yeah when she saw Emily going up for that she should have tried to make a play turn her body around done something to prevent that flag from coming out because I don't know if Mikey would have necessarily caught the ball if she wasn't there but at least she could have made me prevented that interference penalty Cahill shotgun formation three receivers to her left one receiver down to her right number 22 matzoh in the backfield with her Cahill looks to throw she's got 87 in the end zone by Nikki in the pass falls incomplete so so Robinson in on the defensive play it's gonna be second down and goal from the 10 yard line by Nick he's so tough down in the end zone tall goes up makes great plays minute 45 remaining in the first half of the 2019 WF a Division one national championship Cahill shotgun formation Mozza in the backfield with her weights the snap hands it off number 22 mata mata breaks a tackle or Wright takes another block gets up to about the 6 yard line maybe six yard line is the official spot so it's gonna be third down and six third down and goal from the 6 yard line Boston looking to increase their lead they're currently up by a score of 25 to 18 clock continues to run with a minute 20 on the clock Cahill awaits the snap shotgun formation looks to her left she's got a receiver open in the end zone and the pass is caught looks like that was caught by number for stats Borya bell with the touchdown from Temple University and the Boston renegades increased their lead listen Toria Bell had nine touchdowns on the season there's a nice job of concentrating on that ball with a defender diving in front of her number 11 Sarah Tully going to kick the extra point and pretty sure Kelly she got there quick too quick [Applause] [Music] alright so number 11 Center Tully gets an opportunity to kick the field goal again snap kick is up and it's through the uprights and just like that Boston goes from being down by 10 points to suddenly having a 14-point lead as it is now 32 to 18 the Renegades over the Cali war with a minute 9 remaining in the first half and with a minute left I'm really concerned about this Cali offense with Don Peterson their center out or at least on the sidelines hobbled off the field with help that's a key player for them that they can't afford to lose if they want to continue to try to run with this Boston team the second half [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] all right Callie more hoping to get a kick off but asked you and I both Phil Boston is no stranger to the onside kick and keep it on side they kick it hard to kick it through the end zone sorry well coach kicking game Vanessa go to kick off this time they kick it deep moves up to the left side of the field gets a block gets tackled down by number 70 of Boston s Danielle for air on the tackle Cali war with one minute it's just got 61 seconds remaining in the first half well we haven't seen Kallie go no huddle yet they've been huddling up they've been taking their time they've been trying to slow this game down let's see what kind of no huddle two minute one minute offense they've got all right so with 61 seconds left Chantel Wiggins number eight quarterback for Kelly Worf has a long field to work with 73 yards between her and getting a ball into the end zone and as I mentioned there's senator Don Peterson sitting on the bench right now replacing her as number 75 Tanya Olu I tally wore one receiver to her left and they're just gonna take a knee and try to go in down in half collect themselves I think Boston has a timeout or two I wonderful no there's no timeouts her either okay good this game will take us to halftime [Music] so we will have one more line up here one more snap safe to assume Wiggins will take a knee one more time send the teams into the locker room so I guess that answers our question they don't have a quick two-minute offense ready to go and so the ball is snapped and once again shantel Wiggins takes a knee and we are going to go into our halftime with Boston leading the Cali war by a score of 32 to 18 so Donna when when Kali comes out the second half what are they going to need to to be successful they did it they found it in the first order can't they bring that back for the second half of the game when the first quarter they made two big defensive plays they made some interceptions they got turnovers that's something that you can't always count on so without that they've just got to be consistent they've got to get back to what they do well on offense I'm concerned for them missing some of their offensive line you got their third leading receiver going down they've got some things that are going to really challenge them this half number one that got to stay together they can't lose their heads they can't play down they can't play different if they're down ten or if they're up 30 and that's gonna be key to them what kind of character do these players have well I mean we've seen Yarborough go down with injuries obviously their centers down with an injury as well are these things going to slow them down the second half you've told me that Yarborough herself is a Marshall fighter fighter so I mean she's not afraid to get injured she's not afraid to go back out there so obviously Yarborough will be successful in the second half of this game but the answer is is will the rest of Cali war step up behind her are you gonna get those passes to Robinson and King and Wilson don't forget Wilson's down to she's got that high ankle sprain so they've got a number of folks out and we'll see all right well with that we've got Sean I'm sorry we got Pat Brown down on the sidelines with Boston renegades coach Pat down to you sir and we're here at the end of halftime with the head coach John Johnson and the owner Marlee Goodwin coach talked about the slow start that we had in that first quarter two turnovers how'd you turn it around you know the rain delay didn't really help us much the ladies took a little bit of time to get into it but once they start to get into the flow of things you know football football and they were ready to go what do you attest to stopping this high-powered carry offense they got a lot of good players or their style inside the box they're powerful they're physical they got speed on the edge as you usually see tonight 24 is outstanding so we just got to lock them down we got to be physical got to get a hat on a hat and got to be sound and as you the owner two-time national champion trying to go for your third how does it feel to have successful operation it feels great and it feels like we have a lot of support here in the stands with all the different teams and we are proud to be the role model for this league we will take out on our shoulders and we want to make this league better and help all the teams that are here so we're proud to do it last question coach coming out in the second half any adjustment you think you need to make all you're gonna stay with what you have we got there's a few adjustments there that we got to do you know if it all starts in the box we got to be physical we got to be sound and everyone's got to do their job sounds familiar yes it does Thank You coach Thank You Molly I appreciate it and then good seeing you too coach back to you Brian and Donna all right so with the halftime score Boston renegades with 32 Cali war with 18 you are watching the 2019 Women's Football Alliance Division one National Championship presented by eight nation on ESPN we'll be back for the second half action after this [Music] we're here at halftime of the WUF a Division one national chapter game between the Cali war and the Boston renegades and I'm here with Kathryn Morales from prismatic solutions and I want to introduce you can you tell me a little bit about what prismatic solutions is all about prismatic solution we are an innovative sports equipment manufacturer we came up with a grade system which is pretty much created by the rugby guru Richie gray we incorporated this system and American football being that in rugby a lot of players don't get injured as much as regular traditional so we go around teaching proper techniques on how to tackle our bags that unique from other dummies that you may have seen we have grips on our bags to teach proper hand placement so we bring it from Scotland over our bags right now under NFL college high school and for the first time there are an American team but Acadiana zydeco and Louisiana and how did you come to get involved with the WFA and a national championship game well that's that's a good story two seasons ago I came out to Louisiana and I pitched my bags to coach Desmond woods over at Acadian as article I've played every sport known to man rugby and my background and everything else and basically after I showed them what I can do I came on board as just an assistant announcer that's the second head coach and now co-owners to a different team there's about to launch we also have a sports magazine for semi-pro coming out radio station for semi programming and in the mix all are about to create the women's that's very exciting news and how important is it for these equipment to be used of course with the studies that's going around about concussions and all the injuries that's taken place especially when it concerns women well for me it was simple basically the bags are unisex but they were being pitched to males my thing is that we play two so in order for us to be on the same platform with men we had to have this so if they get the proper techniques up here we won't have so many injuries so you have to start with all equipment that has to be safety protocols and just innovative you have to go a lot of action going on behind us I don't get back with this um other than that we just you know we have some new things sleds tackle rings everything so whatever supports you guys have we have equipment to cover women well it's great to know that somebody that's innovative as you has all the techniques and the bags for these women so they are protected and it can play this great game of football that we all love all right so this is Pat Brown we're getting is halftime at the WUF a Division one national charity game between the Cali War and the boss of renegades we'll be back we're back here at halftime of the WF a Division one national championship game between the Cali War and the Boston renegades and I have the pleasure up here with a pioneer of women's football miss Andrew Douglas former owner of the New York shots Andrew how are you doing today I'm doing good Pat how are you I am excellent and talked about your history in this women's football profession that got this all started in 1999 well I was a player in 1999 on the New York Sharks when the Minnesota vixen came to New York and played a game against us and the Sharks won 12 to 6 the following year there were 11 of franchises I purchased the Sharks franchise and I've had him ever since until last year when I sold the team and being a pioneer of this great sport will you see this sport going with it being here at Colorado last year being in Atlanta well I think this this is a wonderful presentation out here i-it's great caliber football I'm very impressed with all the teams that I've seen play the organization out here is phenomenal you know it changes location which is which is great but I would love to see just it just build on this and move forward do what you experienced twenty years with the New York sharks how's it feel to be free to do other exploits I hear you are a accomplished artist and an author I am thank you I do a lot of mixed media artwork and one of my main focuses is on the players of women's football not just my team but all the players I've recently published a book called black and blue which is all about the struggles of growing up as a woman and not being allowed to do the things that we love and then all of a sudden I fall into this football league and dreams come true dreams do come true and you are a asset and a great build to this women's football generation and we're looking for bigger and better things in 2020 in the WFA and all throughout the United States as well as abroad internationally talk about last year and being in London wow that was that was a dream talk about dreams come true I have been wanting to take the Sharks to anywhere in Europe to play and several years I had been working on it and finally it came to pass and I think it's one of the most incredible experiences piggybacking on the fact that we won the d2 championship it was a year of complete magic well thank you Andrew we appreciate your time here with us and we're gonna go back it's halftime again WUF a Division one national championship and between Akali war and the Boston renegades we'll be back welcome back to the 2019 Women's Football Alliance Division one National Championship presented by eight nation where after the first half the Boston renegades have a lead over the Cali war by a score of 32 to 18 so let's look at some of those highlights from the first half action [Music] so in the opening possession you saw Cali war marched out in the field and right away number 22 Jamie Robinson gets them the early lead and there you see number 24 Kaylin Wilson with a huge rush down the field increasing Callie's lead at that point so what were busting to Boston right away Alison Cahill finds wata buna excuse me number 22 she breaks down the sideline gets her team into scoring position past the 50 once again the pass is completed there to number 10 Adrian Smith for the touchdown Alison Cahill wasn't going to let up that once she passed it off again the number 22 Ruth mata mata gets in close to the touchdown Cali war gets the ball back hands it off the Yarbrough Narborough breaks up field gets a lot of all-purpose yards for the Cali war in the first half of the game and there's one of the big plays of the game with that pass completion to number 24 [Music] and there again we've seen that time and time again in the first half where both quarterbacks were willing to throw the long ball mata breaks away cuts the corner to the left side and that one there was her first up touchdowns that she had in the first half of this game Cahill took the snap back here it is Pass completed to number four who gets the nice little dance in there Satori a bell and there we are with the 2019 first half stats will be back for the third quarter of this game after this [Music] welcome back to the 2019 Women's Football Alliance Division one National Championship presented by Adan nation here we're at the start of the third quarter where Boston is up by a score of 32 to 18 over Cali war and we'll send it down to the man on the sideline mr. Pat Brown at all right I'm here with coach Jeff King of the Cali walk coach you started out with a hot streak had a couple of injuries got a little setback what do you need to do to get back into this game well we're gonna make some adjustments and we've got to find some people to fill in for the people that are injured but you know losing the sinner losing the running backs pretty tough thing to replace so we're right where we wanted to be with four minutes left in the half tide and then you know things went a little bit south on us so we're gonna make some adjustments and hopefully if y'all like me second out so is y'all burn Wilson both out or will they be coming back in the running backs back for the sinners out that's a big tackle well you know it's next woman up right so on this championship game this is what you live for you want to be here in the big game so good luck for the second half and hopefully you guys can come back in pull this off all right thank you appreciate they have a desk post Jeff King and going back to you Brian and Donna all right start of the second half Lisa King set this kickoff for the Cali war with a high kick it bounces into the hands of number five shantia Creech Creech up the sideline finally pushed out of bounds right at the 50 yard line she only had one more defender to beat that she hadn't been pushed out and she would have went the distance in my opinion that was Lisa King the kicker getting her on that sideline but you really have to uh you really have to hope this Cali defense can start locking in and getting that pressure back on Cahill give us some that excitement that they gave us in that first part of the first quarter really that whole first quarter they look good at last four minutes though Boston showed something so number seven Allison Cahill the quarterback for Boston renegades making her way in from the sidelines ready to start this second half of play leading her off offense up by two touchdowns currently with a score of 32 to 18 Boston moving right to left across your screen we're in the red jerseys Cali war left to right wearing the white jerseys Cahill in shotgun formation yes madam moving up top one receiver up top three down below Cahill breaks the tackle looks for number 87 Mikey Mikey makes incomplete incomplete attended for number 87 by Nikki just great defensive effort there by number 87 Mary Rose Roche they're very lucky Boston sent a person in motion nobody went to cover them they had two offensive players had on one defensive player she's able to come up and make a nice job grabbing her arm stripping that ball out so second down in ten Alison Cahill shotgun formation she has two receivers up top two receivers down below mata in the backfield with her waiting the snap ball is snapped hand it off to number 22 mata mata takes a good block it's another good block for number 75 and finally tackled backwards by number 26 destiny Yarbrough offensive line getting a good push and you can see once you get to hold good job making that cutback that run of course good enough for a first down Boston moves the chains is gonna be first down ten yards to go from Kelly's 39 yard line Cahill checks the plays on her wrists she's got one receiver to her left to up top pistol formation mana in the backfield hands after mana mana looks for a block on the left side gets one up the middle picks up about three yards on the play taken down by Krystal Aussie really that first half of the game number 22 lief Mata for Boston was their all-around player she had two touchdowns she had plenty of all-purpose yards picked up his first downs when they were needed and she went into halftime re-energized with a little you know pep talk for coaches and she's right back out here Alice Cahill looking to release the ball all our receivers are covered right now she tries to get something thrown overhead to number three Stephanie Pasquale but unfortunately it's out of Stephanie's reach well good coverage on that play when I look at this Boston team have to wonder where their leading rusher from the season knows Angela Pasquale she had 91 carries for 675 yards yet to be seen this game no word on her if whether she's injured or just hasn't come in yet no huddle offense still going the Renegades way she's got one receiver door left three receivers up top a little bit of confusion on the line there three seconds left on the play clock that's exactly what happened there is the play clock hit zero before Cahill was able to snap the ball so instead of second date it's gonna be second and 13 for the Renegades hold on looking at this cally defense toward the end of that second quarter they put in an extra down lineman who had a 5-2 defense they've gone back taking that lineman out gone back to their nickel put another faster defensive player in I think that's the right choice that's what they started off the game with they had a lot more success when they were in this defense and it looks like this is adjustment they made to come back out in this second half Boston with all their receivers to Cahill's left mata in motion on the right Cahill takes the snap [Applause] looks to the left plenty of time to throw gets the ball off to find a key and they're gonna say if she caught the ball Wow well she caught the ball and looks like she might have just drugged her foot shooters falling out of bounds gonna be a gain of 12 yards on the play gonna be fourth down in one for the Renegades 13 minutes and 12 seconds on the clock clock still ticking there's no pressure on Cahill you know she caught that ball I don't know if she actually still had her feet in bounds when she caught it but they're gonna give her the catch couple personnel changes and there's general 52 I could tell you if she's in there she's getting the ball Cahill under center oh no little trickery with and they're gonna get Boston with the false start here gonna back them up five yards so instead of fourth down in one it's gonna be fourth down and six for the Renegades when they were looking to give the ball this tutorial Bell with big lead block out in front now they'll go back to their regular offense Adrian Smith checks back in as a receiver she's gonna be far left for Cahill Cahill shotgun formation mana in the backfield she's got two additional receivers to her right gets the snap hands it off the Mada Mada finds a hole up the middle gets a crucial block looks like she's short it's gonna be close oh yeah with that spot and it's gonna be Cali lor taking over on downs number 22 Ruth Mata doesn't get quite enough on that rush that's a big stop for Cali they needed it here don't want to go down three scores early in this third quarter down by 14 12 15 remaining in the third quarter first and ten from their own 30 yard line Chantel Wiggins in the huddle figuring out what her Kallie Ward need to do here we heard mr. Pat Brown coming into this half we've got a couple key injuries the Center for Cali war is out for the remainder of the game and their linebacker Angela ban stro has taken some snaps on the sidelines at halftime looks like she's in there at center Wiggins two receivers are left two receivers to her right ball thrown looks like some was intended for either number 20 for Wilson or number 9 King broken up there looks like by number 14 Sidney Bennett excuse me number 14 Andrea Fulmar well actually they ran a great crossing route and had full more and five running into each other both of them could have been open on that play ball just not thrown to either of them second down in ten just over 12 minutes remaining in the third quarter cally needs to get some sort of scoring going here to start off the second half Wiggins shotgun formation [Applause] looks to throw them all pass is complete to number 22 Jamie Robinson their big tight in he made seven receptions this year 13 touchdowns this season for number 22 Robinson gets them with a third down in two yards to go ball placed on their own 38 yard line Chantel Wiggins shotgun formation high snap over Wiggins head oh and they didn't see the 12th man on the field Kalle saw that they were trying to get Boston was trying to get a player off the sideline she rushed to get him up she said snap snap snap that snap came that Boston player was not quite off the sideline the official did not see it if you're watching here she's running she's right there that should be a penalty that should be elephant Kalle ball first down instead big turnover instead big turnover is right number 68 for the Renegades Jessica Hayden recovers that snap that went over the head of Chantel Wiggins gives Boston excellent field position first in ten from Kelly's 25-yard lines Cahill takes the snap hands off at number 22 mata mata breaks a few tackles take him down by number 27 excuse me 87 Mario's Mary Rose Roach from Cali war but not before another first down for the Renegades she's breaking on tackles by Jeannette and Mena's big Mexico they're on that play a combination of speed and strength so it's first and ten from the 13 yard line Boston has the opportunity they can still get another first down without having to get it into the end zone three receivers to the left of Cahill Gale takes the snap hands it off to mata mata breaks one tackle breaks the second tackle still on her feet finally the whistle is blown as she was getting no more forward progress Hanabi swung around by the defender couldn't see you out her hands on her there you know and you look at you look at number 22 Ruth Matta she comes in at 4 foot 11 inches tall and only a hundred and twenty-three pounds so here we have somebody that's powering through the line as one of the smallest if not V smallest player on the roster for both teams yeah her speeds really what gets you she's very nifty she can really try not to get full on hit each time she gets to get to the side three receivers to the left pitch over to mata mata finds a hole gets a block missed tackle there by number 26 and she's being pushed forward push to sugar Wayne renderers down it's gonna be first in goal from the 2 yard line for the Renegades after that entire offensive line effort pushing her forward for those additional yards 1a pushed her into so so Robertson's hands and she had her hands both on the ball trying to rip it from her as you see her going down that's a time when you might be able to get a turnover but not quite Cahill trying to get the call from the sidelines she's been running a no huddle offense the entire game so far 2 seconds remaining on the clock yeah play clock running down had to call timeout so Boston uses our first timeout of the half with 922 remaining in the third quarter up by two touchdowns over Callie war with the score of 32 to 18 Wow I mean this is just one of those moments where Kali was sitting pretty nice thinking they had a drive getting ready to go down to make this game a little closer turn right there Boston's knocking back on the door you know and Donna we look outside right now and obviously we had the one hour lightning delay we had some drizzle coming down in the first corner but it is absolutely turned into a beautiful evening for football right now if their current temperature outside is 69 degrees yeah it's just so beautiful I hear not a cloud in the sky we've had a great day of football we announced some of our defenses are WFA players of the year of course our WFA Defensive Player of the Year from the National Conference Veronica Rucker from the Cleveland fusion from the American Conference Chelsea Vincent from the st. Louis slam yeah WFA Offensive Player of the Year from the National Conference DC Divas quarterback Amanda kanji Aldi and the American Conference Gabriella Johnson from the Portland fighting shockwave all right Allison Cahill under center mana in the backfield généraux in the backfield ball pitched stomata mata breaks one tackle finds her way into the left hand side touchdown Boston renegades into the world couldn't bring her down had her to grasp and what a great play that was you had généraux there that I'm pretty sure Kelly thought was gonna get the ball and bust up the middle there you can see they faked the handoff to general Mata comes around on the backside escapes that tackle by Angela wells and then there's nothing between her in the end zone the green grass familiar we've seen from Boston all year when they start putting the pressure on they put the pressure on and they score with that touchdown mata now has three touchdowns on this championship game when five in the playoff so she had to a couple weeks ago against the Divas she's really getting it done out here and Tully's extra point is good and with that Boston increases their lead now 39 to 18 over the Cali Wars remember that time in the second quarter when Boston was down by 10 points yeah that's been quite a while all right so with that score 39 to Boston 18 for Cali war you're watching the 2019 Women's Football Alliance Division one national championship welcome back to the 2019 WF a Division one National Championship presented by eight nation on ESPN we're into our third quarter with 917 remaining in Boston now with a three touchdown lead over Cali War the score is 39 to 18 Donna you had some insight in regards to last year's game and where we're at currently well with one quarter to go up quarter and a half we were already close to the score that Boston won by last year and Boston there tried the onside kick and it was recovered by Cali Wars number 40 Monique Boone out of Stanton California and the College of Notre Dame of Maryland it just goes to show Boston doesn't care it doesn't matter what the score is they'll kick it on side they'll kick it wherever they want to go but back to that game last year 42 to 18 Boston over the LA warriors at that time this game looking kind of reminiscent at this point with still I have to go so Chantel Wiggins in the Cali war starts inside Boston's territory gonna be first down in ten from their 46 yard line she's got two receivers up top two deceivers down below Yarborough in the backfield with her awaiting the snap in the shotgun formation Boston defenders need positions Chantel Wiggins looks Lisa king with a great catch she's escaping the tackle she's finally taken down at the 20 yard line the 18 yard line where it's gonna be marked out tackled by number 14 Andrea four more for the Renegades and drew a full more one of their rookie standouts this year really saw that pass coming thought she might get interference kind of pulled up making sure she wouldn't get interference there but unable to make the initial tackle giving Lisa King a good first down run and that is exactly what Cali war needed at this point starting in Boston territory instantly moving the ball down the field like they did with a 25-yard reception by a Miss King Chantel Wiggins shotgun formation two receivers up two receivers down Yarbrough in the backfield with her takes the snap looks again not once again by Lisa can't Lisa Cape taken down by her ankles at the 9 yard line it's gonna be second down and 1 Creek alley war great concentration looks like that ball went right through the defenders hands right over Lisa King great catch and two plays in a row Andrea full more has had an opportunity to prevent Lisa King from catching that ball at two plays in a row Lisa King has managed to get big plays for Cali wore [Music] Wiggins plates the snap high snap has time to recover with it throws the ball lofts one into the air intended for number 22 Robinson falls incomplete looks like Robinson might adjust slowed a little bit down on her route unable to connect so it's gonna be third down into for Cali War Chantel Wiggins in the huddle Robinson making her way back over 756 remaining in the third quarter Cali down by two touchdowns score 39 to 18th of Austin Wiggins two receivers to her right two receivers to her left Yarborough in the backfield shotgun formation waits the snap I Wilson - sort of took off on that and that is about what Callie wort needs to do right now after a couple of solid plays to start their half of this game the second half excuse me but good news for Callie they got Kai back she'd had that high ankle sprain was evaluated half-time got taped up looks like she's doing all right back out there it is good to see number 24 Wilson back in the game as you said two receivers up two receivers down Yarborough in the backfield Wiggins takes the cash she's looking for King in the end zone [Applause] [Music] she had Andrea full more all over her three flags into the end zone there King wanting the flag and she was gifted at multitude of them so what goes from third down and seven turns down to a first down in goal situation for Callie war [Music] so I wish first place but they had to put that ball up close to the two yard line there we go they got it right so it's first down and goal from the 3 yard line for Cali war two receivers to her left two receivers to her right Yarbrough at the backfield she looks to her left airs the ball out to number 22 and it falls incomplete Robinson not able to pull it in America Jerry Lincoln gets slow to get up on that play number 91 Callie can't afford to have any more players go down 746 remaining on the clock in the third quarter [Music] Wiggins in the huddle with her teammates Boston making a few defensive changes I think in this situation I'd look for Lisa on the right-hand side again she's she's been able to beat Andrea full-bore two times so far on this drive but you also have your number one receiver Jamie Robinson 101 harborough gets the ball pushes in her way waiting for the official call touchdown number 26 Kelly wore Yarbrough in for the touchdown after being out of the game for part of the first half with that shoulder injury yeah and as we're talking about passes they give it to the d-train Destiny Yarborough powers our way in along with the rest of that offensive line looks like a couple people come out push her over the end the end the end zone and if there was any question on her shoulder after seeing the way they nailed her shoulder out those blocks and attempted tackles I think it's safe to say her shoulder is okay well she came right back you know her first play on defense made one of those tackles so she showed right off the bat she wasn't afraid to go in there and write somebody up with that shoulder being so we're gonna take the touchdown away Ali general from Boston with her first unsportsmanlike conduct so basically again because it's NCAA rules that is a warning if she gets a second one she would be disqualified from the game Wiggins receives the snap throws it up another flag on the play that was intended for number 22 Jamie Robinson and number six for Boston Brooke Goss was all over her yeah well gosh made a little contact while the ball was in the air that's gonna pull a flag every time so what started out as a fast drive for Cali war here now with back to back-to-back penalties this drive is not necessarily stalling but the momentum that they were trying to build in this corner it's definitely down but all they need to do is square this touchdown that momentum is right back and they're where they want to be ruth mata with the unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for the Renegades and that is her warning as she approaches the possibility of big game disqualification as well so it's going to be first and goal from about the 2 yard line for Callie wore Wiggins waits for the snap hands it off the Yarbrough Yarborough breaks a tackle lunges forward looks like she gets to about the one-yard line so she picked up about 50% of what she needed to get into the end zone this play yeah you've got to get the ball back to her I mean she's getting hit still gets three four yards after initial contact give her the ball game let her go beast mode and score the score this touchdown you know Yarbrough 31 carries she's averaging 14 point 4 yards per carry during the regular season she's got the muscle she can force her way through the line she only needs maybe one soft block to gradually open the hole and then from then on she can just escape through that yeah she's very powerful so we're looking at second down and goal from the one yard line for Cali war two receivers to her left two receivers to her right Yarborough in the backfield with her throwing it up to cake for second like she might have a bead on that ball just throwing too far out in front of her but you just gotta get that ball back in destiny you harborough's hands so it's third down and goal Callie needs to get something in here 627 remaining in the third quarter down by two touchdowns to the most powerful offense that we've seen in the WFA in years shotgun formation Wiggins takes the snap right away she throws it to number 24 Kyle and Wilson for the touchdown Boston playing off a little bit KY does a great job just sit down catching that ball she gets knocked out of the end zone right after the catch but once she's in she's in that's right the ball Blake's the breaks the plane here's the replay of it quick snap to Wiggins Wiggins throws the ball almost immediately Wilson into the end zone gets the touchdown decreases the Renegades lead Boston kind of thought maybe she had come forward with her progression as she was catching the ball out of the end zone but the official said nope touchdown Kelly lining up for the extra point something we have not seen them do yet this game bad snap flags on the play they're gonna see Lisa King left early I don't know I think personally that she was drawn off by Creech but that's just my opinion well back them up and they'll go for this kick so that moves them back to the nine yard line bad snap oh it's two points guys somebody pick it up well hello [Applause] there's no whistle a lot of confusion on the play I don't blame number 53 at all Deanna Walsh did the right thing I personally don't know if I heard a whistle or not I don't blame her for running all the way to the end zone we would have had the holder with possession of the ball on her knee down so that the holder head finally got possession of the ball her knee was on the ground and said oh boy rules that ball is declared dead at that point so there we go with that score Boston's lead is down to 39 to 24 over the Cali War I want to give a lot of credit to Angela Bannister coming in from her linebacker position back to snaps during the half you know she hasn't been doing this all year came out help move her team down the field a little bit tough on that extra point snap there but that's a dame that's a dangerous play being down on the ground throwing that ball up like that Lisa can't getting kept this set to kick off the ball for Cali war 6:20 remaining in the third quarter her team down by 15 nice kick [Music] picked up by number 11 that's Sara Tully for the Renegades makes her way up to about the 28 yard line where she's taken down by a pair of war fans draw after snapping comes in on the kickoff makes the play she looks like she's gonna be playing every snap the rest of this game Center linebacker and special teams a lot of these Cali War players are doing that you'll notice this roster a little bit smaller than that Boston roster and a number of their players unable to make it from the LA or Fresno area up for this game and so they are down a handful of folks in addition to the injuries they've already suffered this evening so Boston first intent from their own 30 yard line Allison Cahill quarterback having a successful game number 22 running back Ruth Mata having a successful game by Nikki having a successful game she's got three receivers to her left one up top mata in the backfield with her shotgun formation she awaits the snap snap is good hands off to mata mata gets a block up the center spins off to her left gets a few more yards breaks through another tackle finally taken down by number 444 in 40 while wells she's sort of ran up into her own man bounced off her for a second slowed her down boom get off of that get some more yards yeah number 68 Jessica Hayden hadn't been there I think mata could have had a quite a few more yards on that carry so it's second down about three yards to go Boston with the ball Cahill waits the snap hands it off the bottom modifying to hole up the right running up the side gets back to about the original line of scrimmage that time nice tackle there by so--so Roberson corner coming up just keeping that edge Boston third down and three clock continues to run 505 here in the third quarter up by 15 over Callie warm Allison Cahill number seven red jersey moving right to left across your screen waits the snap snap is up hands it off the bottom mata gets a block up the middle gets dragged forward gets enough for the first down gets about five yards on that play it's going to be first down intent for the Renegades from their own 43 yard line 42 yard line excuse me yeah Boston seems really content just to kind of settle in hand this ball off they're not really pressing there not rushing for just going with their game well considering Cahill had an interception at the first half of this game I don't blame them at all you have a 15-point lead the clock is in your favor continues to run as you continue to just run keep the ball on the ground she's got two receivers up top two to her left mata in motion play clock ticking down what a catch by number ten Atreus now she dropped it double it knocks it out don't control us to the ground the head referee comes in degrees with the up higher that that was an incomplete pass see here on the replay you've got it carry it to the ground initially she does have it but yeah she is not able to come down with the ball it bounces out and back up into her hands and that was a great play by Yarborough to prevent Boston from progressing the ball down the field boston body motion four receivers to her right it's got the numbers up top one to her left snap throws the ball catch bye-bye key [Music] by Nikki picks up about five yards four or five yards on the play gonna be third down for the Renegades clock ticking away 343 remaining in the third quarter McAuley not adjusting fan additional receiver over there and now they got a player down trying to get off the sidelines wisely just went down so the clock would stop not quite sure who that is at this point 339 remaining in the third quarter of this game you're watching the 2019 Women's Football Alliance Division one national championship that might be Yarborough she's just taking a beatin yeah and sadly that is Yarborough down again she came out for a while in the first half with some shoulder issues was looked at by the team physician we were cleared to come back into the game well you know she's playing running back she's out there playing linebacker she's doing it all we're a mile high up here in Denver yeah is that why I'm out of breath is how I thought I was just cuz I could do stairs haha possibly Cahill shotgun formation she's got one receiver to her right to three to her left takes the snap she's looking for by Nikki by Nikki jumps up almost gets the catch unfortunately she's not able to pull it in and that's gonna bring a fourth down for the Renegades what's the grin great coverage by Sol Sol Roberson calling her name a lot really has made a big impact for this team yeah if it wasn't for the play of Sol Sol Robinson probably the last couple of possessions for Boston we would definitely see a score much higher up than we currently are Boston is ready to punt so Vanessa go the kicker was not able to get that punt off in time and as a result Boston is backed up five more yards and here they are now punting from their own 30 yard line [Music] well it already hit the Boston player you can grab it anywhere and run so Cali Warren Chantel Wiggins come back onto the field down by 15 points their defense that time did a great job of maintaining the play Boston trying to run down the clock had a couple good rushes by Monta unfortunately those past attempts that they were throwing to by Nikki weren't able to be pulled in and as a result Cali war now first and ten at their own 39 yard line yeah this nickel defense has definitely been the way to go put some more speed out there and that's really helping them lock down these really talented boss and receivers Wiggins shotgun formation she has King to her right antonov the number 20 for Wilson Wilson breaks up the sidelines forced out of bounds by number 20 Emma feinstone they've been loving that edge all game they kind of went away for it for a while boss and started really making some adjustments but once again extra body out there get that block turns the corner gets a nice game gain of 8 yards on the play 2nd 8th the in stadium board for some reason show second in 18 second eight ball on the 47 yard line to second - excuse me [Applause] [Music] Wiggins gets a snap I think that ball was tipped I think that ball was tipped and she released it yeah she just I mean she rushed that throw she needed to take one more second her receiver was wide open she had plenty of time no rush was there yet you know just kind of winged it out there good fit make your throw complete that pass she's got a good first down so here we are we'll be able to see just I can't tell if it got off those fingertips or not would it go Leila wobble in the air definitely so it's third down into Chantel Wiggins in the Kali War decide to use a timeout this is gonna be their first time out of the second half two minutes and 23 seconds remaining down by 15 to the Renegades by a score of 24 to 39 you are watching the 2019 Women's Football Alliance division 1 championship brought to you by eight-nation here on ESPN I'm Brian Sweeney with me again this season is Donna Wilkinson Donna you and I actually met for the first time last season in Atlanta and who'da thought that we'd be come the voice of this game again this year well I'm sure having a blast call in the game with you we had a fun time there in Atlanta and here in Denver same deal man it's great working with you we're having a lot of fun the weather's a little hot thanks little great this is awesome Stadium beautiful here at the Colorado School of Mines mark a stadium and Golden Colorado 223 remaining in the third quarter of play Chantel Wiggins shotgun formation she's got two receivers who trying to get the ball to number 24 Wilson they're just missed her she had a little crease trying to catch her in stride didn't quite work out it's gonna bring out fourth down fourth down into 2:19 repay inside your territory you're gonna punt the ball away on the gown couple scores brings out the punting team for Cali war it's so tempted to go for it forth and to at this point maybe they're so Cali war is electing to use their second time out and about just as many minutes here have actual time not game time that's gonna leave them with one timeout for the remainder of the game and we talked about that in the first half of the game when they consumed so many of their timeouts early that when there was four minutes remaining in the half they didn't have anything to work with yeah and you have to wonder if that affected them not going for anything just kneeling with a minute left not having any timeouts just feeling was a better option to go into halftime with the score as it was but here they really got to make the right decision there's a critical point either way in this game Boston fans right now back home it's a approaching 2 a.m. in the morning and they're all glued to their TVs California on the other hand they're watching this game it's almost 11 o'clock in the evening so they're at the their party in

and not happy about it no flags whip-snap handed off instantly to Yarbrough and right away for Boston Aaron yet was there on the tackle yes they're right guard she's been doing a great job pulling getting out on offense there you see her on defense coming up making the play so the Boston renegades Allison Cahill and the rest of her team out onto the field first and ten from Kelly's 45 yard line four receivers to her right mana in the backfield throwing the bottom but a gets a block breaks way through one tackle gets taken down looks bite number Mary Rose Mary Rose roached I'm surprised I haven't figured that out yet I'm still looking for number six which is her normal yeah just slip on another jersey this after this evening kind of throwing everybody off including myself so it's second down looks like they gained about two and a half yards on that play we'll see what the official yardage is 138 remaining on the clock third quarter second and seven takes the snap ball is thrown cut by number three Stephanie pass well pass well breaks a couple tackles moves up the right side of the field almost breaks another tackle finally taken down by her ankles at the 20 yard line and that's that tunnel screen we were used to seeing from bots and they pull that outside receiver and they get all those offensive line downfield blocking look at all this 8880 so they're gonna actually say that her knees were down at the 22 yard line so she should be first intent for Cahill and the Renegades at the Kali War 22 yard line she's got one receiver to her left three to her right pistol formation mata in the backfield with her hands and after mata mata gets a good lead block breaks through another tackle and as she's taken down we actually see the helmet of number26 Destiny Yarborough come off as she was pulling down mana on that play she'll have to come out for a play with her helmet off as you see Aaron Truex up there leading the way on that block just offensive line for Boston so good they pull so well they get downfield to get movement they get space for their running backs to get through and they create really good lanes referees widen the clock clock continues to tick 48 seconds remaining in this quarter Boston up by a score of 39 to 20 for Allison Cahill shotgun formation three receivers to her right mata in the backfield with her looks to her right instantly releases the ball to number three Stephanie Pasquale on number 16 femoral sheath um on the ball who's gonna recover Callie says they got it the officials are getting together to sort this out and we're still waiting so apparently they're gonna say that pass ball was down by contact here well that's anti come climatic and that's gonna bring us to the end of the third quarter the Women's Football Alliance Division one national championship we're currently the Boston renegades are up by a score of 39 to 24 over the Cali War we will be right back with the exciting fourth quarter finale of this presentation of ESPN sports [Music] welcome back to the WFA 2019 women's football Division one National Championship presented by a nation where the Boston renegades lead the Cali war by a score of 39 to 24 and let's send it on down to the field level with Pat Brown Pat it is drastically changed the weather has dropped the wind is howling it's going to affect how the ball is going to be played in the air it looks like Boston's gonna try and keep the ball on the ground they have a 15-point lead Callie's gonna try and chip away but the temperature has definitely dropped as you see I got to put on the jacket because it is very cold out here in the mountains well Pat I'm glad you remembered to bring that jacket there is nothing worse than being cold I experienced that all too often calling a hockey game so Matta picks up the ball rushes forward gets down to about the two yard line there will be a flag on the play we'll have to see what the call is on that Cindy of holding so the guilty party there is Jessica Hayden number 68 out of Boston Massachusetts went to the University of Southern Maine that's gonna back up the Renegades here so they'll replay the third down they're looking at third down and eight yards to go Cahill looks to the sideline figuring out what they want to do for the call this is actually the longest we've seen them go in between plays with Cahill walking over to get the call from her coaches she's got one receiver to her top two receivers to her bottom Mata in the backfield with her balls handed off to mata mata finds a hole in the middle spin to the right spin to the left breaks one tackle gets forward a few yards finally taken down well it looks like to be number 13 for Callie ward great kick out blocked by offensive line jessica hayden big hole to run through there so that's gonna be enough to get a first down for the Renegades are looking at first down clock continues to run 14 15 remaining in the fourth quarter up by 15 first and ten for the Renegades from the Cali 13 yard line Snap is back pass intended Oh Pass was leading going for number 10 Adrian Smith and there is a flag on the play that was great defense [Applause] Smith asked for the flag when she got up and she was awarded the flag so it's going to be first in - for the Renegades nothing in their way of this fixing other than themselves too close to call yeah well it looked like a well timed great time well-timed tackle just unfortunately it was about a split second too soon Cahill takes the snap looks to her left throws the ball just out of the reach of Stefanie past well gonna bring up second down and goal from the 2 yard line Cahill looks to her sideline to her coach wants to see what Johnson wants her to do here looking to get back-to-back national championships for the Boston Renegades Cahill an amazing player last season led her team to the championship looking to do the same here with only 13 58 remaining in the fourth quarter shotgun formation she has one receiver to her right two receivers up top holds the ball looking for a pass incomplete intended for number four satori Abell great defense not gonna fall away that's Michelle Kenney Boston just kind of content they're not really trying to do a fast-paced office they're still doing their no huddle but they're really slowing this game down trying to pace it out a little bit so it's gonna bring up third down and goal from the 2 yard line still still one receiver to her right three receivers to her left Cahill takes the snap moves up to the left side of the field she's looking for somebody in the end zone wants to throw the ball wants to get it to Satori Abell but we have multiple flags on the field nowhere in the area of where that ball was being thrown yeah all those players were far away from the play or there's Flags rather initial indication is the penalty is going to be on the Renegades so it's gonna be fourth down loss of down here Boston's fourth and goal from the two yard line big defensive play here chance to stay in this game only down two scores plenty of time left for Cali war to move down the field if they're able to stop the Renegades from entering the end zone here Cahill has bought it to her left three receivers to her left mana switches to her left Cahill hands off Manik going up to the right finds a hole gets stopped by Kelly war she is slammed down by a host of war defenders she actually lost a yard on that play since Cali war is gonna be first intent from their own three yard line Kali put that extra defender and took out their Nickelback made a big difference there's that D line stepped up made the play so with 1338 remaining down by 15 points Chantel Wiggins and the rest of Kali Wars offense Huddle's up in their own end zone trying to figure out how they can go 97 yards down the field and bring themselves to within one possession in this game she has two receivers to her left two receivers to her right loan running back behind her looks to throw ball is tipped intended for number nine King incomplete the ball falls good coverage there by what looks like to be number 20 Emma feinstone yeah Boston was coming off a blitz off the edge picked it up pretty well just unable to deliver it clean ball to lisa King second down in 10 five seconds came off the clock with that possession Cali war needing to go 97 yards not once but twice into the end zone to get this game tied up and possibly give themselves a lead down by 15 I was a good play they had her open pass intended there for number 22 Jamie Robinson thrown behind her not able to spin around in time to pull it in I'm gonna bring up third tenth yeah she just didn't just didn't really get that ball out playing didn't get set they need to move the ball here you're not you're not wanting to punt from where this location is and more importantly than that you're also not wanting to turn the ball over on downs from here [Music] two receivers to her right Callie war we're in their white jerseys pass caught by number 22 Robinson moving upfield gets enough for a first down to the 115 yard line that's just what Callie need to go to your leading receiver big target consistent hands and she's tough to bring down she get some good yards after the catch right there they had her fur loss and she goes ahead and gets that extra stretch is that first down and with that it's first intent from the 15-yard line Callie wore Chantal Wiggins the rest of the offensive line break subtle comes up she's got two receivers to her left two receivers to her right one lone running back shotgun formation snap is up Pass Wilson number 22 Jamie Robinson running down the field she gets a good block there let's turn around she's got another person coming taken down by number five shantia Creech but not after a successful 40 yard catch and run for number 22 Jamie Robinson Gator the oxygen Wow I think she had a lead block out there but there was nobody in front to bleed she should have turned around and been a reverse block catch two people coming from behind and that is this a smile if I've never seen one coming off the field not known for her speed she makes a great play so with that it's now first intending in Boston territory ball set at the 29 yard line Chantal Wiggins shotgun formation two receivers to her left two receivers to her right Yarborough [Music] sideline down there yellow at the officials thinking they got that ball off a lot of discussion but unfortunately it was a false start on Cali war so that's gonna back them up for five yards so it's gonna be first in 15 from the 34 yard line [Applause] two receivers to our left two receivers to her right Yarborough in the backfield pass is complete to Yarborough Garber all gets take it down almost instantly by number six Brooke Goss ask you some great tackle on a tough runner there we gotta go low to bring her down loss of yardage on the play gonna be second down 17 yards to go clock continues to tick just under 11 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter women's Division one wf8 national championship on the line tally down by 15 points in Boston renegade territory Chantel Wiggins awaits the snap of the shotgun formation passes up [Applause] pass was intended for number 86 Svetlana Stemper jump falls incomplete Callie needs to come up with some of these plays Boston this at this point they really start feeling they did you start feeling certain way and I see Ali 10-roll look like she tackled her player and the receiver is trying to catch that ball big third down play third down play summers to her left Boston showing blitz snap is a little bit high gets the throw off unfortunately she under throws Wilson hot that play and it's gonna bring up fourth down for Cali war I just don't really think she had a good beat on her receiver she sort of just lofted it up take your time get set find out receiver out there she's running a good route although she had two defenders on her now we talked about a little bit ago Kelly wars down to just one time out we talked about the use of those timeouts in the third quarter is that going to come back to hurt them they're going for here on fourth down fourth and 15 three receivers to her left one to her right moving right to left across your screen Haislip ball is tipped in the air falls incomplete the Renegades will take over on downs that's a Lee general with the rush gets a tip on that ball see the pressure coming right up here off the edge that was a Lee general like you said number 52 at 215 pounds from Greenfield High School in Somerville Maryland the fact that she was able to leap her muscle mass that high into the air shows what a true athlete she actually is Cahill drops back releases the ball she's got Meineke reaching out for it falls just beyond her reach brings up second down in ten Renegades looking to use as much clock time as they can't 10:25 here in the fourth quarter ball currently on the 31 yard line one receiver to her left three receivers to her right empty backfield Cahill releases the ball before she gets knocked down closest receiver in the area was number 15 Katherine tile and ER pressured by Jamie Roberson there that's what they need when they get pressure on her they've got a chance there's so much time left in this game 10:25 this game is not over no definitely not third down intent here if Callie wark and hold him to a three and out they stand to have decent field position much better than on their last Drive when they had to start at their own line five seconds on the play clock J Hill looks to the side delay a game she tried to get him with a hard count on getting work had to call and try to get a new play so instead of third down intent for Cahill and the Renegades it's gonna be third down and 15 with 1025 remaining they have a 15-point lead over Cali war score of 39 to 24 here in Golden Colorado at mark a stadium at the beautiful Colorado School of Mines just most picturesque setting that I have ever seen in my entire life she's got three receivers to her right one receiver to a left mata in the backfield with her takes the snap throws the ball got by mata mata breaks one tackle gets through gets another tackle she's going up the sideline to the 30 let's 25 but 20 left ten the five with her fourth touchdown in the game for the Renegades number 22 Emma Ruth Hana Wow she's just having an MVP performance tonight what a game she makes somebody miss and she is off to the races I think that was Rob Lowe out there head shot at her just couldn't quite get over she's so fast gonna see the replay here with ball was released at the 20-yard line one shot at making a tackle could block there and she is off to the races no one's gonna catch her at this point so she had 70 yards after the catch in that run right there for the touchdown for Ruth Mata and her fourth touchdown of this championship game her decision to come over to America to play football obviously the right one for her to make well she'd want so many championships in the UK she thought let me see if I can go get some US Championships as well and Sarah tallies extra point is good with that the score is now Boston renegades 46 Kelly Ward 24 you're watching the women's division one Nash Championship on ESPN brought to you by eight nation we've got ten minutes and 11 seconds remaining this is Brian Sweeney with Donna Robertson and this is getting to be exciting and I for us we've been here since I mean since yesterday we can obviously say well you've been working three games today doing broadcasting color announcing you're doing it all can't believe you're still standing here at 3 in the morning your time and all I've had today is one Slurpee and one dr. pepper as far as as far as the caffeine goes don't tell your wife that I think what I really need here is some sort of hot dish to keep me going coming from Minnesota yes yes something to settle your body that's right something warm to keep my body you know where it wants to be number 26 Vanessa go for Boston getting ready to kick off the ball to win knocked it off the tee so we're gonna have number 20 Emma feinstone and hold the ball for her [Music] ball is kicked beautiful kick not fight number three Landry Smith Smith goes up the middle this is a couple tackles finally take it down at the 34 yard line there is a flag in the backfield [Music] [Applause] Angela banner with a block in the back so that's gonna back up Kali warm more than they want it to be down now by three possessions 1002 remaining in the fourth quarter Jeff King the head coach trying to figure out what they can do to get this ball in the end zone I mean obviously they've been more successful than they were last season absolutely they held a lead for a good portion of the first half they came out much stronger there their defenses played a lot better their corners have been exceptional Yarbrough has been a beast Chantel Wiggins she's first and ten everybody's moving her own 17 yard line flags on the play so now they're gonna be first and 15 backs them up to the 12 yard line Chantel Wiggins has a long way to go she's got 87 yards between her in the end zone she needs to get there three times in the next ten minutes in two seconds she's gonna have one receiver to her left three receivers to her right and a false start before she got set that's the right tackle go from first down in ten - all of a sudden first down in 20 and you're moving the ball the wrong direction which is not something that you can afford to do against this Boston renegade team yeah it's really hard when you shoot yourself on the foot and you do it over and over again they've got some big playmakers but they got to get big chunks at a time at this point what receiver to her left Wilson a motion pass goes up in the air somebody's got it maybe they're fighting over it no one's made a call yet guys gotta go to the office right goes to the offense it's a catch he's the king Lisa King that ball just hung up in the air way too long let the defender get over they actually both caught it at the same time but they're gonna take that they're gonna take that away and say she didn't catch it I never saw the official the official was blocked from the play so he couldn't see it and so I don't know how he can call it incomplete if he did not see it hit the ground although I guess maybe he can't call it complete because he did a second down at twenty three receivers to her right Chantal Wiggins as Wilson in motion that time looking for Robinson Robinson had great coverage there by number 24 Brianna Gallo Robinson want a little holding call but good coverage on that play Austin getting players in and out off the field 9 minutes and 50 seconds remaining [Applause] Boston looking to win their second National Championship in a row their fourth in women's football overall for that city pass intended for King that time great coverage by Ruth mata King out a little beyond her but you can't really find stone sorry have to put a perfect pass on that fourth down in 20 got a point here [Applause] Kali moving a little slower as they come off the field they don't have that same energy they had first-half feeling their sails deflate a little bit got to keep playing guys 9:45 left in this game a lot can happen Sorge alley war backed up even further before they can get that punt off literally gonna be punting out of the back of their end zone depending upon the snap number five for Boston shantia Creech waiting for the punt and that punts gonna bounce out of bounds at about the 18 yard line and with that we will break away one last time you are watching the 2019 Women's Football Alliance Division one national championship we're busted as a head of Cali war by a score of 46 to 24 we will be right back with the remainder of the game after this welcome back to the 2019 Women's Football Alliance Division one National Championship presented by eight nation on ESPN we just see Allison Cahill take the snap and dump the ball out of bounds intended for number 10 Adrian Smith and before we had that happen we saw Cali war get backed up backed up backed up had to punt the ball away and Boston who's up by three possession has great field position with only 937 remaining in this fourth quarter yeah Boston's really sitting in a good position at this point they don't need to rush anything they're still doing their no huddle offense which they've been running all season or just slowing it down a little bit okay Hill gets the play call from her sideline she's got one receiver to her left three to her right mata in the backfield with her pass thrown up into the air caught by number ten Adrian Smith flags on the play Adrian Smith having a great night tonight [Music] so unfortunately they're number 34 the Renegades Aaron DEET was downfield and she was ineligible to be so that's actually gonna back Boston up and nullify Smith's catch that she just had him this offensive line so active deep one of the players you often see pulling getting downfield on big blacks snap is good lofts it up in the air I don't think - odd coming over that defender there it's not with ban stirs big arms in the way she's twice the size of Mata you know we talked about mana quite a bit this game you mentioned that she came over from Europe to play football in America here she has four touchdowns in her first national championship game with the Boston renegades and I bet she's having a great time over here yeah and after watching her play you have to think she had a little something to do with those six championships that she won in the UK while she was playing there just a tremendous athlete coming out getting it done here as well Allison Cahill's gotta watch the play clock two seconds left gets the snap off in time looks to her right looks in the center throws it up in the air she's got a player in the end zone and that's picked off from the end zone by number 25 that's Cynthia burr off for Kelly war breaking across the field and taken down at the 15 yard line she read that perfectly all the way she sat back from that safety position receiver actually had beat her man that safety came up and said no man and that is exactly what Kelly Ward needed right now because Boston with they're controlling lead was already getting here putting it in the end zone a fourth time pass Cole looked like she might have had her man be but she did not have a safety beat great job so Chantel Wiggins the Cali War offense have another opportunity 855 remaining here at the fourth quarter down by a score of 24 to 46 they need 22 points so they're gonna need three touchdowns with a two-point conversion in there to tie this game snap is up ball is handed off to number 24 Wilson Wilson runs up the right-hand side of the field she breaks a couple tackles she gets up to the 35 yard line where she forced out of bounds by number five shantia Creech you could really see her speed there once she got to the outside Creech didn't make that tackle she was gonna go for six and that's gonna give Callie another set of downs it's gonna be first down in ten from the 34 yard line has tackled their eight minutes and thirty seconds remaining the clock continues to run 17 seconds on the play clock Callie wore one timeout remaining have to get down into that end zone three times seven seconds left on the play clock she's got one receiver up top three to her left Yarborough in the backfield ball is snapped looks to her left throws it to Lisa Cate Lisa King with the catch take him down instantly by number 20 Emma feinstone he's the king having another good night just showing how consistent she is as a receiver runs good routes not the tallest receiver but she's really really nifty in there and she's tough King for four more yards on the play second down six yards to go Callie wore 746 remaining on the game clock fourth quarter Wiggins shotgun formation and takes the snap looks to her left throws the ball up pass was intended that time for number 86 shret Lana Stephon chunk and unfortunately falls incomplete separate choke kind of looked like maybe she was stopping on that right if she kept going she might been in a position to make a play on that ball the one advantage that happens there with that incomplete passes Kelli Ward does stop the clock referee has to reset the ball umpire excuse me [Applause] third down and six Wiggins takes the snap looks to her right throws the ball passes caught by number 22 Jamie Robinson who gets another first down for the Cali war taken down by number 52 general Tia Creech went for the interception just a great catch by Robinson to come up make that play so it's gonna be first intent for Cali war there one yard away from entering Renegades territory at the 49 yard line on their side of the field first intend to go clock continued to run 7/10 remaining in the fourth quarter 46 to 24 the score down to Boston in the red Cali war bad snap number 24 khylin wilson with the false start gonna back them up so it's gonna be 1st and 15 and these mental errors are killing them when you're a winner in her team that's the underdog you've got to come out really strong you've got to come out focus too many times we've got receivers jumping off sighs there's no need for that settle watch the ball Chantel Wiggins he's got Yarbrough in the backfield with her she's got two receivers to her right two receivers to her left she looks to her left looks for at Lisa can't Lisa Kate pulls that one in gets back up to the original line of scrimmage take it down there by number 14 Andrea full more lisa has had a pretty good day on Andrea for more that's the third catch she's had directly over her with tight coverage as well so they're back to the original line of scrimmage is gonna be third down and 10 third down and nine is the official measurement ball right on the 50-yard line Cali war shotgun formation two receivers to her left two receivers to her right Yarborough in the backfield looks for Yarborough Yarborough gets blocked and unable to get to that ball good pass reading by number 30 Aaron D it yeah it read that all the way got out there in her Lane might have been making a little contact with her as the ball was in the air but nothing called incomplete pass so 555 remaining here in the fourth quarter you're down 46 to 24 to the defending national champions Wiggins shotgun formation to to her left tuturro right Yarborough behind her awaits the snap snap is up pass up in the air a lot of contact there call I want to say that was supposed to be attendance for Svetlana step a chunk again unfortunately she was not able to get to the ball so it's gonna bring up fourth down and nine for Callie war with 549 remaining well looking at this Boston defense they've made an adjustment to they're going with a 3-2 defense that brought an extra DB in as well just trying to match up with these receivers fro for Kali Wiggins steps back Wiggins gets the ball away Oh Yarborough gets hit hard as she's trying to break a tackle that spring gamble big linebacker she's had a Philadelphia Pennsylvania and the Renegades will take over on downs with a Bible 31 remaining here in the fourth quarter the women's division 1 national championship game yeah that was a beautiful hit my spring camp as you mentioned we've seen some good hits in this game from both sides of the ball first and 10 for Allison Cahill and the Boston renegades offense on their own 48 yard line 5 minutes and 31 seconds away from claiming their second National Championship in as many years gets the ball in complete to pass intended for an upper three Stephanie pass well Pascual had blockers out in front of her just unable to hold on to that ball [Applause] [Music] Allison Cahill shotgun formation one receiver to her left two receivers to her right mana in the backfield hands off to mata mata gets a block spins to her left gets a couple more yards makes your way on up to the 46 yard line of the Cali war finally taken down by crystal I see big defensive tackle so it's gonna be third down in for pass looking for number ten Pass complete to number ten Adrian Smith Smith avoids a tackle Smith to the 20 to the 15 to the 10 to the 5 touchdown Boston renegades number 10 Adrian Smith Wow you know defender had a chance to make a great play just did a breakdown get a wrap-up Adrian Smith with a nice spin move she's off to the races that's three for Adrian Smith tonight Adrian Smith with her third touchdown reception of the game going along that sideline there what yeah that defender just over an ER never broke down never got in good position to make that tackle Sarah Tully ready to attempt the extra point kick is up and it is no good this time a rare miss from Tully so with that Smith touchdown we now have the Boston renegades 52 the callee war with 24 look at that footwork on that sideline there as she escapes that last tackle from number 25 Cynthia Ybarra from the Cali war and easily gets in for her third touchdown of this evening and I like her cameraman running down the sidelines with his cell phone capturing the action right along the way she wants a highlight reel she deserves he's got she's done some work tonight I've played with Adrian Smith on the 2010 and 2013 national team she's been a big player in this league for a long time hasn't had a big game every game because Boston has so many talented receivers each week it's somebody different tonight she's had a breakout game so with four minutes and two seconds remaining you can see the clock is running so obviously that tells us the Cali war has invoked the mercy rule here in the fourth quarter where they will keep the clock running between plays unless there is an injury of some sort I think the realization is set in so Vanessa Cole gets ready to kick the ball off what very well could be the last time of the season [Music] there it is taking my number 20 for Wilson she gets a fumble on the play manages to recover her own fumble galley war will be first in ten she's a nice little job of slow playing that kind of look like she's jogging up to the hole little little blocks get fed up and they got a burst of speed up in there but in protecting the ball too well lucky bounce back up into her arms so it's Kelly war first and ten from the 46 yard line of the Renegades two minutes and 57 seconds remaining between Boston's second straight national title for so many of these a late call no way but Cowley War Cal war players this was their shot at their last game you have a lot of folks and they're done they're playing a lot of years want to retire Wiggins takes the snap goes the ball looking for King falls short number 20 once again Emma feinstone on the coverage of King so both of these teams a lot of veteran players clock continues to run two minutes and 13 seconds remaining Boston 52 in their red jerseys Cali war with the ball 24 points in their white jerseys moving right to left across your screen 2 minutes remaining second and 10 for Cali war 11 seconds on the play clock how a war just not in a hurry to move or do anything looks like they're waiting on something I'm not sure what that is so Cali war here elects to take the delay of game call on second down also sort of look like an intentional delay of game but I'm not sure with a minute and thirty three why you would do that unless you're just not interested in getting another playoff so the clock continues to run minute 23 remaining Chantel Wiggins Cali war offense breaks huddle two receivers to her right to to or left [Music] Yarbrough in the backfield takes the snap throws the ball ball intended for number 22 robinson falls in completes great coverage there by it looks like general in the middle of the field once again and Creech over there as well Boston to a little bit of shifting on that play giving them one look bringing a couple other people down to the line at this game folks it's about to be over in Boston it's gonna be your two-time defending champions and well-deserved I mean they had such a great season really uh heartbreaking for the DC divas who had a very talented team played him close one of their games but other than that this Boston team has been dominating game in and game out all year Lucretia Lane with the rush their first time we said her name this game clock continues to wind down 14 seconds left Kali war is looking they're looking to end this game now they're making their way off the Familia gets hot skunk haha Boston comes away as your Division
