Meet Holley Mangold.

Holley Mangold is 16 years old and is currently a varsity football player for Alter Highschool in Ohio. For the past 2 years she has played both defensive and offensively in junior varsity. Sure there have been girls in football before but never before has there been an girl play as an offensive line backer.
The love for football came from her brother, Nick Mangold who is currently first season rookie for the Jets. As a child Holley saw Nick playing football and having fun and she followed right in his footsteps. For her it's more than just being part of the game, she gets a rush like no other.
At 5'9, 310lbs Holley is definitely a formidable opponent on the field and in fact she set a record this year. On August 25, 2006 Holley started as right guard against Fairmont in the Ohio State division. It was the very first time that a girl played a down from scrimmage in a Division 1 game in Ohio State football history.
But while Holley loves and lives football she is also very good at other sports. Don't under estimate Holley. She make look large but she is definitely in charge. She participates in Discus, Shot put, and set the AAU girls record for squat lifting at 525 pounds, breaking the old mark of 470.
So look out NFL, it looks like Holley is headed your way in just a few years. Holley is confident she can handle the NFL but the question is can the NFL handle Holley?
