Penn Kingsmen capture second consecutive state flag football championship

Summary

The Penn Kingsmen secured their second straight state flag football championship with a 34-28 victory over Lawrence North at Grand Park in Westfield on Saturday. The Kingsmen dominated early, scoring on their first five possessions, driven by quarterback Quinn Driscoll's strong performance and Alivia Dawson's three touchdown catches. Lawrence North rallied in the second half with a 16-point surge, but it was not enough to overcome the deficit created in the first half. Penn finishes the season undefeated at 18-0, defending their title after a close semifinal win over Fort Wayne Snider. The Wildcats, finishing at 11-2, fought hard but ultimately could not complete the comeback.
