Tonight in the Aquilla vs. Coolidge game Brody Woodward made a 39 yard field goal. A school record from what I understand. I feel these are uncommon in our sport and figured I’d share with the sixman community.

Best way to get that college football scholarship too. Get to kick the football and take less of a beating in practice.

Yes it is sill legal, and from a coach's standpoint, I would love for a kid to be able to drop kick. It allows for another guy on the line to help block. It just something kids have a hard time getting down, so it ends up being too inconsistent.

In the fall of ‘23, my son’s team had a kicker who was more than capable of 50 yard FGs. He was only used for kickoffs and XP. In the state semifinal, we had a perfect opportunity to kick a 30 yarder right before the half and it was almost like our coach didn’t know you could kick FGs. We went for it and almost threw a pick six (defender dropped an easy pick). At times, it felt like the coach intentionally made the dumbest decisions just to keep games close. My son graduated but I still follow the team and he’s still doing it. Almost every game he does something that makes absolutely no sense.
That kicker transferred to a 6A HS. Can’t say I blame him. If your goal is to be seen, you’ve gotta have opportunities.
