Dimond was clinging to a 20-19 lead with less than two minutes remaining and East possessed the ball on its own half of the field. Martin sealed the win when she picked off an East pass and returned the ball 40 yards for the game's final touchdown.

Colleen Fairchild provided Dimond's biggest offensive highlight, juggling a pass from quarterback Tara Thompson, before pulling it in for a 49-yard touchdown reception. Jaley Bozeman led the Lynx with 91 yards rushing, including a 54-yard touchdown run.

Aminata Cole scored on a 15-yard touchdown run on her way to 52 rushing yards, and Gabby Coleman led the defense with five pulls.

Bartlett 12, Ser. 6, OT

Olivia Callaway's 10-yard touchdown run in overtime Tuesday sealed a CIC flag football win for Bartlett, after enduring a defensive battle with Service at Anchorage Football Stadium.

Sharea Holley gave Bartlett a 6-0 halftime lead with a short touchdown run in the first quarter, but Service tied it at 6-6 on a long fourth-quarter touchdown pass. Bartlett threatened to score on its final drive in regulation, but stalled at the Service 18-yard line.

Service was awarded the first attempt to score in overtime, but failed to put any points on the board, opening the door for Callaway's game-winning run.

West 21, E. River 6

Alexandria Rojas and Kelly French each caught touchdown passes Tuesday in West's 21-6 CIC flag football win over Eagle River at Tom Huffer Sr. Stadium.

Anna Sophia Roberts ran for the Eagles' third touchdown as part of her 27 rushing yards on six carries. Quarterback Dani Levine threw for 105 yards, completing 8 of 17 passes for two touchdowns, and Kelly Cantrell accounted for all three of West's extra points.

Eagle River's touchdown came courtesy of an 86-yard run by Lauren Frost, and the Wolves defense created two interceptions. One pick came from Scout Warners and the other was an unusual play in which Leilani Mahi and Katy Alvarado both came down with a grip on the football.
