A high school football team in a small town in Oklahoma nearly had to forfeit their game on Sep. 23 due to lack of players, until two senior girls stepped up to play. The football team at Wewoka High School in Wewoka, about 70 miles from Oklahoma City, already had to forfeit on Sep. 9 due to lack of players. Faced with another forfeit, senior softball players Natalie Davis (9) and Callie Ramsey (5) volunteered to suit up. A video shared by the Wewoka Tigers shows Davis punting the ball nearly 50 yards. In another clip, Davis kicks off then makes the tackle on the play. The Tigers ended up losing the home game 47–14, but were happy to get out and play.
