No HS kick-off duties and one 30 yd FG.  

Sounds like it was based solely on her abilities.

This just about covers everyone...

"The university recently signed kicker Tiago Paim and they have a returning sophomore Eduardo Majalca on their roster. "

Eh, not that our HS kicker got any scholarship offers but we probably attempted about 5 FGs in my 4 years playing there. Article said she visited the college and kicked for the coaches to earn the scholarship. 

Definitely a PR aspect at work here, though.

She's no Kathy Ireland, but still much cuter than I expected.

It's a DII kicker job.  And she has had a back injury.
