The 2024 high school flag football season is off and running in six of the seven states that participate in the fall. Enough games have been played to begin formulating computer rankings.

Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Georgia and Illinois sanction flag football in the fall. Georgia is the only state waiting to get underway. Peach State teams have to wait until Sept. 30 to begin playing games.

Teams from California dominate the top 25 computer rankings with some squads having already played more than 10 games. No. 1 Orange Lutheran (Orange) is averaging over 35 points per game while allowing less than eight.


No. 2 JSerra Catholic (San Juan Capistrano, Calif.) is led by freshman quarterback Ava Van Heerde, who is averaging 254 yards passing per game and has thrown 18 touchdowns. Seniors Seylah Childress and Shea Gonzales along with sophomore Kai Beary each have over 200 receiving yards for the Lions.

Another freshman signal caller putting up impressive numbers is Maliyah Estrada of No. 17 Western Christian (Upland, Calif.). Estrada leads the country with 2,878 passing yards and 53 touchdowns in 13 games. Senior wide receiver Grace Galdamez has hauled in 19 of those touchdown passes.

No. 5 Mountain View (Loveland, Colo.) has been led by senior athlete Mason Premer, who has thrown for nearly 500 yards and added another 163 on the ground.
