These days, it's unusual enough for a high school team to kick an extra point. Last night, a high school kicker kicked a 62-yard point after. Why so far? Following the touchdown - a 69-yard kickoff return for a touchdown (made by the guy who then kicked the extra point), the team received three 15-yard penalties for excessive celebration, unsportsmanlike conduct, and taunting. The resulting kick was believed to be the longest in DC high school history, and was longer than the Maryland and Virginia field goal records.
The kicker is a senior, and will go to UVA next year. On a soccer scholarship.
