1998: NS senior is first female to play MAC football

Aug. 26, 1998: North Scott’s Nicki Power was set to make history as the first female football player in the Mississippi Athletic Conference. A longtime soccer player, Power would serve as the team’s kicker. “She’s prepared to play,” said coach Randy Schrader. “She’s a stud soccer player, who plays hard and is tough. That alone has earned her the respect of our football players. They know she’s a hard-nosed kid.”
