Casino67 Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 YahooSports: It started as a way for an 8-year-old girl to keep up with her big brother. Sam Gordon just wanted to run with the older kids. The coaches in the local tackle football league figured, hey, why not? Maybe they could turn it into a drill: Who can outrun Max's little sister? They were shocked to find the answer: no one. Sam Gordon, now 9, became one of the fastest kids this Salt Lake City area "Gremlins" league had ever seen. They put her in drills and she outran boys two years older. They allowed her into the "Sharks and Minnows" game and stared in awe at not only at her speed, but her ability to move like a tailback. "She could cut and follow blocks like a college football player," says her coach, Chris Staib. http://youtu.be/Gs8X1RzQ1Gw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rokke Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Cool story and good for her. For her sake, I hope she doesn't have that same physical dominance when she's in high school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
