9-year-old Sam Gordon is a Hardbody


If you haven’t heard about 9-year-old Sam Gordon yet you’re in for a treat. She’s been taking the internet by storm since her father posted some of her football highlights to youtube. Yes, football… The American style and yes she. Sam (short for Samantha) shreds through defenses and blazes past the boys in a blink of an eye. She also knows how to lay a hit on them when playing defense. Sam is a hardbody and if this interview doesn’t put a smile on your face we don’t know what will.

Not only is Sam adorable she is well-spoken, especially for a 9-year-old. It’s refreshing how authentic and natural she is, something adults often forget about. Sam’s efforts on the field recently landed her on the cover of a Wheaties box of cereal, something often reserved for Olympic athletes or the likes of Michael Jordan. Although she’s crushing it on the football field she shares that soccer is still her favorite. Check out Sam’s interview with ESPN’s Hannah Storm on SportsCenter. This is great! Congrats Sam and keep crushing.
