Women's soccer star Sarah Fuller makes college football history with kickoff for Vanderbilt

• Vanderbilt women's soccer goalkeeper Sarah Fuller made history as the first woman to play in a Power 5 conference college football game.
• Vandy did not get any kick attempts in the first half, but Fuller started the second half with a kickoff.
• Fuller won a tryout to fill in as a placekicker after the Commodores lost several players who tested positive for COVID-19.

Sarah Fuller is the first woman to play college football in one of college football's Power 5 conferences.

On Saturday, Fuller suited up for the Vanderbilt Commodores as a placekicker. The team was shut out in the first half without any kick attempts. However, Fuller made history when she led off the second half with a kickoff.

After the kick, the Missouri fans gave her a standing ovation.

Fuller, a star goalkeeper on the Vandy women's soccer team, was added to the roster by head coach Derek Mason. The team needed a kicker after several kick specialists were slated to miss the game against Missouri due to COVID-19 quarantine.

Fuller had "PLAY LIKE A GIRL" on the back of her helmet to promote a not-for-profit that encourages women to play sports and participate in STEM activities.
