The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are coming off hosting their first-ever She Is Football tournament weekend, in which the NFL franchise hosted the high school girls flag football tourney at the AdventHealth Training Center.

1st annual She Is Football Tournament to take place at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' One Buc Place

Coming away with the tournament title was the No. 3-ranked Robinson Knights, who defeated No. 2-ranked Lennard, 21-14 in the championship final.

Lennard reached the title game by defeating No. 1-ranked Alonso Ravens, 20-13, in the tournament semifinals. Longhorns' head coach Travis Combs spoke very highly of the Buccaneers' weekend event and the tournament itself being put on.

"Yeah, our goal is to build strong women to be leaders in our community and the Bucs are doing that on a very large scale," Combs said.

"So having all these these businesses that are owned by by women and showing our girls that that hey, it's possible to be a business owner, a leader, all those things change your community. It's really cool. It's really special. 
I'm a huge Bucs' fan. I'm proud to be Bucs' fan, and and Zak (Zumbiel) has been amazing and Steve (Fidura) and all those guys, there's always first class here. We get treated like royalty. 
I'm just beyond thankful to be a part of this and have my team here and I couldn't be more thankful and more appreciative."
