No "maybe" about it.

She played:

Jeez, Vandy couldn't even get the ball over midfield,

 

No chance for her to try a FG.

If you watch the above video of the kickoff she could barely get the ball over midfield on that.

 

I can only assume she was better in practice...

Supposedly (?) She was instructed to pooch kick it.

Glad she got to play. 

question did she have to shower with the guys?

Try as I might, every time I see this thread’s title, I read it with a dirty mind. 
 

Sorry Ann.

Cool story.  Would've been the perfect opportunity for a fake though.

Hmm.  Chick has chance to score but you'd rather see her fake it.  Recurring theme?  😛

Maybe at a sub conscience level....nm.

I'll be the buzzkill.   That PAT was worthy of a middling high school kicker.  But hey, cool story though.

People have said for eons that the only way a woman could ever play college or professional football is as a kicker. Seeing how she is kicking, and assuming she'd be one of the better ones, there is a long, long way to go on that.  Nevertheless, it is a cool story.

There's an ocean-wide gulf between thinking that women only belong in the kitchen and having women participating fully against men in physical competitions.  Too bad our overlords only want to focus on the coasts of that wide gulf.

Agreed. Should have been blocked... Also, I'm happy for her.

I usually applaud these kinds of barriers being broken but this smells of hype. Fuller's performance was nothing to call attention to.

 

One of the local NH high school teams had a female kicker 2 seasons ago. Madison Lucantoni. Multi-sport athlete including ice hockey. Kicked for the varsity. Perfect from within 35 yards. She didn't have the leg for kickoffs but she was accurate and had good form.
