She will be keyed on big time.....
History? B.S.
A co-worker’s daughter was place kicker for her team - 20 years ago.
I hate hyperbolic headlines.
Well...having played football from the 4th grade through 12th grade and coached football for nine years I can tell you one fact: A good coach would tell his players that she isn’t a girl, she has a number on her jersey just like they do — she is a football player and they had better GD well treat her as if she had a twig and berries and hit her as hard as they would hit any other football player or they will lose any and all credibility on their football team and life in the locker room will be intolerable if she gets the better of any male on the opposing team. You DO NOT want to be the guy that got beat by a girl on the football field.

Less than I did in HS and I was a runt compared most of the team.
Put that on a resume, braid her armpit hair, and she’s a shoo-in at Sarah Lawrence.
When I lived in Maryland, there was a girl whose parents managed to make the school allow their daughter to play football over much objection. Not sur,e if they sued or just threatened to. She was seriously injured then they sued the school saying that they were not told that she could be injured.
