It’s not everyday you hear about a woman playing on a Varsity football team, and it’s definitely pretty rare to see a female playing safety on a Varsity football team. Brooklyn Harker is the girl who is making a name for herself playing a defensive position. Her parents are one hundred percent behind her decision to play football.
Brooklyn Harker’s mom recently tweeted about her daughter’s accomplishment
Our daughter is starting free safety on D for tonight’s first home varsity game at her high school.
Taking all well wishes for a safe game and, of course, a big win! #GoGridironTigers🏈 pic.twitter.com/xDC1XBOaMv
