When Carli Kling had the chance to make history Friday night at Vineland High School, she wasn't completely aware of it.

During Vineland's 27-8 win over Bridgeton in the  Fighting Clan's opener, the sophomore came on to kick the extra point with a chance to become the first girl in the program's history to score a point on the gridiron.
