Indiana girl to play football at NAIA school Campbellsville

National Signing Day might be way off in the rearview mirror, but one Jeffersonville High School cornerback from Lafayette, Ind., decided to make things official by signing with NAIA school Campbellsville on Wednesday.

In doing so, Shelby Osborne made history -- she's the first female college football player to play a position other than kicker.

"It was something I wanted to do, and I went out and achieved it," she said, per The Courier-Journal. "But now I have girls coming to me asking for help. It doesn't just apply to football -- just anything they don't see as a possibility because there are certain professions viewed as male professions that they could go into that they might not have thought about."
