Avry Wortman, 13, scored two touchdowns on Sunday during her team's win in the under 14 Greater Moncton Football Association.
When she was tackled in the end zone at Moncton’s Rocky Stone Field last Sunday, Avry Wortman didn’t realize she had scored a touchdown.
“I didn’t know I did it until I got up,” said Wortman.
She ran to her teammate Hailey Spinney, who was one of the lead blockers on the scoring play.
“She asked me, ‘Did I get a touchdown?’ Like, yes you did Avry,” said Spinney.
Both girls are members of the Raiders, an under 14 (U14) team in the Greater Moncton Football Association.
Wortman’s tight end Ella Kamel was also out front blocking for her teammate on the play. All three were part of the “powerpuff play,” which is named after the cartoon show “Powerpuff Girls” that features three young girls who have superpowers.
“That was just awesome,” said Kamel. “Everything went according to plan. We all just worked together and it just happened.”
