Advising repeated as Turkey Bowl champions on Thursday, Nov. 16 at John L. Harvey
Field.
In the 7-on-7 flag football tournament presented by WNC’s First-Year Experience, Advising
suppressed the Veterans Resource Center, 48-19, in the championship. The VRC squad
scored first, but Advising wore down the challengers with an opportunistic defense
and big offensive plays.
Adrian Barrera and Tyler Golden returned interceptions for touchdowns, and Ilyass
“Z” Zerhouni threw the longest TD pass to Alex Clough.
An energetic and wildly dressed ASWN (student government) cheer squad encourageted
the players during the championship game. Faculty and staff also came out to watch
the second edition of the Turkey Bowl.
Time will only tell if another team can step forward and dethrone Advising next year
in Turkey Bowl III.
