Vanderbilt women’s soccer goalie Sarah Fuller officially became the first woman to play college football for a ‘Power 5’ school on Saturday. Fuller kicked off the second half after she wasn’t given any opportunities to try any field goals or extra points in the first half due to Vandy’s struggles on offense.
Fuller’s kick appeared to be an intestinal squib kick aimed towards the sideline which was recovered by Missouri on their own 35-yard-line.
