OSG High: Coolidge DC Loses Season Opener

((HT: MyFoxDC/NBCWashington))

Coolidge High ((DC)) made history Friday night with the first game under new head coach Natalie Randolph- the first female football coach in school history.

But... the storybook ending didn't happen in week one... a 28-0 loss to Archbishop Carroll. Randolph is one of only a handful of female football coaches across the country.

The 30-year-old is a former wide receiver for the D.C. Divas women’s professional team.

This is her third season as a coach. She worked with receivers in 2006 and 2007 at H.D. Woodson High.

Here's your highlights, thanks to our friends at MyFoxDC

The HQ will be following Randolph all season long... and wish her nothing but kick ass...

DC High School Names Female Football Coach

Good for Calvin Coolidge Senior High School in Washington, DC...

This really should be no big deal since Natalie Randolph has ACTUALLY played football and coached it at other levels, but she is believed to be the only woman to be coaching at the high school level in the United States.

Here's how MyFoxDC covered the press conference...

Randolph is right... being female has nothing to do with it...
Go kick some ass...
