Student newspaper The Vanderbilt Hustler first reported that Fuller practiced with the football team Tuesday with numerous team's specialists in quarantine because of COVID-19 testing. "Instead, she went through walk-throughs with coaches and at least one specialist on the sidelines, multiple sources say".

If she plays against Missouri, it's believed Fuller would be the first woman to participate in a Power 5 football game, according to ESPN's Alex Scarborough.

"We're working through it right now", head coach Derek Mason said at Tuesday's press conference.

"Multiple sources told The Hustler that Fuller was wearing full pads and a uniform but did not take any kicks", the Hustler said.

"She's got a strong leg".

As for why Mason's considering it. aside from Vanderbilt's kicking woes this season - the team had to place a bunch of special teamers in quarantine this week due to a possible COVID outbreak.

Mason confirmed in an interview with 102.5 The Game in Nashville on Wednesday that Vanderbilt women's soccer goalie Sarah Fuller has practiced with the team. "She is an option, she's a good option but we'll see on Saturday". In 2017, Becca Longo signed a letter of intent to play football at Division II Adams State in Colorado, CBS reported.

"We've had her out, she's good with the football, she's really good with a soccer ball". She's an option for us. Junior Pierson Cooke has made only 3 of 7 attempts this year, while another junior, Javan Rice, has yet to appear in a single game.

Fuller, a senior, is coming off a solid performance in which she made three saves to help the Commodores defeat top-seeded Arkansas and win the SEC tournament title. "Right now, that's where we sit".
