GRR: Life University
Lindenwood regained the women's D1A title they lost last year, taking what was, once again, a tight final against Life 19-15.
This was the seventh straight D1A final between these two teams. Played at Stanford University, it may be the last as Lindenwood is now an NCAA varsity team and is expected to play a NIRA schedule next year.
Life University and Cal both impressed as they won D1A semifinals Saturday to set up a repeat of the championship matchups from 2018 and 2019.
It was a tale of two very different semifinals in women's D1A this past weekend.
Lindenwood defeated Central Washington 29-5 in a demonstration of what it takes to break tackles.
Lindenwood beat Navy 10-3.
Scholz Award Nominee Duncan Krige blocked a kick and chased it down to score the only try of the game. Both teams had other chances but Lindenwood’s ability to stop Navy’s maul was the difference.
