Sarah Thomas, a 39-year-old woman, is "poised to become the Nation Football League's first permanent female game official,"
reports Bloomberg news, "possibly as soon as the 2014 season." A wife, mother of two boys, and a full-time pharmaceutical sales rep, Thomas has spent "16 years calling high school and college games."
“I didn’t set out to break a glass ceiling or a gender barrier,” said
Thomas, a 39-year-old from Brandon, Mississippi. “If you’re doing things
because you love them, then things have a tendency to just kind of fall
into place.”
