Soccer players are ideal candidates to be kickers for a football team. This is not something out of the norm, but for a college football team to be considering a female is definitely not your typical roster move.

Vandy Coach Derek Mason confirmed that soccer player Sarah Fuller “is an option for us ” during his segment on 102.5 The Game in Nashville on Wednesday.

Vanderbilt football, which finds itself in need of a place-kicker, could turn to women's soccer player Sarah Fuller.
