NOW: Local flag football team gets national treatment

ELKHART, Ind.- Mayor Rod Roberson is honoring The Elkhart Cowboys Flag Football Team as the group of 9- and 10-year olds head to Las Vegas to play in the NFL Pro Bowl this February.

The team's hard work was on display as they succeeded in a series of national tournaments, earning them sponsorship by the Indianapolis Colts for the trip west.
