GRR: Lindenwood Women
Saturday, June 11, the MA Sorensen and Rudy Scholz Awards were officially handed out to Idia Ihensekhien of Dartmouth and Larry Williams of West Point at a gala event at the Washington Athletic Club in Seattle.
Lindenwood made it two tournament titles in two as the Lions women defeated Life University 19-7 to win the May Madness Women’s Premier championship.
Undisputed national champions, Lindenwood went 6-0 in Atlanta, outscoring opponents 211-7, and then 4-0 in New Orleans, outscoring opponents 117-7.
Lindenwood dominated play in the Women's Gold Division to win the R7CC Sunday, shutting out Dartmouth 32-0 in the final.
Eti Haungatau limped off the field at the D1 Elite final having done enough.
It was a tough year for Lindenwood Head Coach Billy Nicholas.
A disturbingly ferocious bout of COVID saw Nicholas, younger and healthier than the vast majority of serious victims of the pandemic, in intensive care and with family, friends, and players concerned he might not recover.
