Ashley Cockrell – Ashley Martin when she wore the No. 89 football jersey for Jacksonville State – made history on August 30, 2001 when she booted a first-quarter extra point against Cumberland University. The kick made her the first female ever to score in an NCAA football game and the first to play in a Division I contest. A two-sport athlete who initially came to Jacksonville to play soccer, she became a media sensation following her 3-for-3 night at Burgess-Snow Field. From Regis & Kelly and Good Morning America to being featured in USA Today, ESPN The Magazine, People Magazine and numerous other publications, Ashley was everywhere. This year marks 19 seasons since Cockrell etched her name into the college football annals.
