Stacy Agee - Off the flag football field - enjoying life

    Stacy S. Agee

Born in Charlottesville, VA, on January 31 1971.
Stacy was a tomboy growing up. Her single parent mother raised her and her younger brother, with help from her grandmother who she was very close to.
It was OK that she played her sports and games in her rural VA neighborhood. Her mother and grandmother never stopped her from being who she was. She also was accepted by the boys who judged her by her performance in sports and not the fact that she was a girl. Sports truly formed this young athlete’s life.

Stacy Running All The Way

What is her absolute most memorable flag football moment?
In 2008 Kelly McGillis Classic, her team Richmond came to Key West with 10 players and played the championship against the NY TNT in the pouring rain. With 8 players remaining (6 were healthy) and one minute two seconds left in the game, Stacy threw the winning touch down pass to Karen Mones. One of the best flag games ever!

Stacy developed a strong ethic for sports and a high level of sportship which she attributes to her coach: Larry Davis who taught her to “be the best player on the field, while respecting teammates and opponents”. Stacy will never embarrass or shame for her glory or to outshine anyone. She will “never degrade another human being”. She is a superior athlete, who could easily take advantage of a game, yet she maintains her demeanor and respect for the sport.

Stacy discovers Flag Football

In 1996, Stacy played her first flag football with a team in the Virginia League: VA No Fear until 1998. It was exciting for her to use her speed to avoid getting “touched” and she perfected the “spin”. The league did not have downfield blocking and Stacy makes this point, because she thought this was most exciting when the team traveled to the Key West Women’s Flag Football tournament and she discovered downfield blocking. She loved running downfield, having her blockers lead block for her, the thrill of that closeness to the chance that her flag would be grabbed. Stacy loved running up holes through the offensive line and having her linewomen break them open. She credits coach Lance Conner with teaching her all about playing a good defense. She had some of her best flag football experiences and great memories for the Key West tournament.

MVPS AWARDS

ALL STAR AWARDS

When Stacy was 12 years old, she played her first organized sport: softball for her school team. Then at 15 years old, she added Track & Field, where she ran the 100, 200, 4 x 100 relay and did the long jump. She also played basketball. Basketball was her passion.

Pretty soon came her honors: Converse All American Female Athlete 1989 for basketball, Virginia State award for track & field, she won regional championships in Basketball and Softball and was close to winning the state as well. She broke the record on the long jump at 17.8 feet.

Asked which sport Stacy liked better: flag football or tackle: Stacy likes them both the same. She loves the IWFFA rules with ineligible offensive line, kicking, punting, and that the IWFFA is world wide. What she loved about tackle is that she could stiff arm an opponent, fight off a tackle, the protection her strong offensive line gives her was a rush. Her flag football spin, came in very handy during these games and her speed was her power.
