By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
Fans were on the edge of their seats Wednesday night as Big Blue, the top seed in the Real Housing women's flag football league (8-0) was matched by number two rated team Vringo (7-0). Vringo went 14-0 ahead after two early touchdowns, but Big Blue came back into the game and held on for the tie. On its first offensive drive Big Blue was held by a tight Vringo defense. Vringo then went on to score with a touchdown pass from QB Yael Freedman to Elissa Sagoskin who also scored the extra point. A continually stingy defense and then a second touchdown and extra point by Adina "Brick" Brickman quickly put Vringo in the lead at 14-0. After getting the ball back, however, Big Blue caught up with lightning speed with touchdowns by Rachel Shmidman and Sarit Bailey, and extra points by Shmidman and Geffen Stein. Vringo then scored once again with Freedman running the ball into the end zone, and then connecting with Keren Klass for the extra point. Big Blue quarterback Shana Sprung ran one in herself and threw a pass to Stein for the extra point to tie the game at 21-21.
