Most Iowa high school football fans heard of this one, but with NW kicking woes this past year, here is one for you if you haven't already heard.
15-yo HS sophomore Katie Lindsay became the first girl in Iowa high school history to score points in a Iowa High School Championship game after kicking two PAT's and a 27-yo field goal in Class 1A Van Meter's 17-14 win over West Sioux. There are Five Classes in Iowa football, as well as an 8-man Class. But, this is pretty impressive for her first year of even kicking a football. For the year, Katie kicked 73 0f 76 PAT'S and she was 2 of 2 with two 27-yd FG's. After completing her freshman year of playing HS soccer she said one of her high school friend's said she should try out for the football team. She NEVER kicked a football before. But, in the summer of football camp going into her sophomore year she tried out and proved to be the most consistent kicker on the team.
Here's a short article about her accomplishment's for the season, including a 3-minute video. Again, just a HS sophomore kicking a football for the first time this season after playing high school soccer her freshman year.

One more 3-minute video during the season in October that really introduced Iowa to her accomplishments by mid-season and by that time she had kicked 36 of 38 PAT's.
