FOOTBALL: April Goss becomes 2nd female ever to score in FBS

By David Carducci

Kent State has a 36-6 lead going into the break, but only one of those points will make the national headlines.

With 4:30 to play before halftime, April Goss became just the second female ever to score a point in an FBS game when she added the extra point to put the Golden Flashes ahead 29-6 following a 5-yard touchdown run by second-string quarterback George Bollas.

Players mobbed Goss after her kick, and KSU coaches were waiting on the sideline to hug her.

Head coach Paul Haynes promised he would get Goss into a game this season, and he followed through.

We are hearing that Goss has already been asked to appear on the Ellen Degeneres Show sometime this week.

The other stats are pretty shocking as KSU's defense has dominated.

Delaware State has -40 yards total offense (5 yards passing and -40 rushing).

The lone Hornets score came after a fumble by Miles Hibbler was scooped up and returned 65 yards by William Burton.

The Flashes have added touchdown runs of 1 yard by Trayion Durham and 5 yards by Bollas along with a 18-yard Reardon-to-Nick Holley touchdown pass just before the break.

The Flashes are outgunning Delaware State 375-to-(-40)
