We don't even see drop kick PATs anymore, much less field goals. The NFL record is 63 yards, equivalent to the place-kick record, though that was clearly pre-video. Given the fact that the drop kick is a lost art AND that this is a HIGH SCHOOL game from just a couple of years ago, this is AMAZING.

37-yard drop kick field goal
SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.

Why not, Mark? They're generally treated like crap by fans who have no clue. They deserve some love.

Re: 37-yard drop kick field goal
does Arena Football still have the 4-point drop-kick FG and 2-point drop-kick PAT?

Jay: To the best of my knowledge, the bonus point for drop kick FGs and PATs is still in effect. But it's STILL rarely used. Most teams would rather try to bounce a pass off the net and hope for a good result....
