2019 Coordinating Council Flag Football Tournament

South Bench Repeats as Flag Football Champs in a Thriller

South Bench (Haight Creek Stake) won their second straight CC Flag Football title Saturday, defeating Columbia Heights (Kaysville South Stake) on the game's final play 32-27.

The South Bench team drove the length of the field without any time outs and were just short of the goal line with the clock reading: two seconds remaining.

South Bench QB Daniel McKay (pictured below at far left) rolled to his left and completed a pass as the time had expired to Cole Anderl (next to Daniel below left) for the game-winning touchdown. Columbia Heights led 27-26 prior to the game's final play. 

The game saw Columbia Heights racing out to a 20-0 lead in the first half, leading 20-6 at the half. But South Bench rallied to win back-to-back titles (the first time in CC history) and their fourth title in seven years. 

In 2016, Columbia Heights successfully defended a two-point conversion attempt with no time left to beat South Bench by one point, but this time, the result went the other way. It was a highly competitive game with a thrilling finish. We hope to have more participants in the tournament next year!
