Female football phenom says schools should have girls' teams

In this April 25, 2019, file photo, female football player Sam Gordon walks the NFL draft red carpet in Nashville, Tenn. Opening arguments in a lawsuit brought by Gordon pushing to compel the state to create all-girls football teams at high schools were heard in federal court Tuesday, Sept. 8, 2020. Gordon became an online star when a video of the then 9-year-old girl's dominant football skills against boys gained widespread attention online in 2012. She, her father and other girls who wanted to play football filed a lawsuit against the three districts and the Utah High School Activities Association five years later. (Doug Benc, AP File)
