Robert Kraft sends gift to first girl to score touchdown in her high school's history

New England Patriots and team owner Robert Kraft surprised Massachusetts high school football player McKenzie Quinn with a gift after she became the first girl to score a touchdown in her school's 125-year history.

Quinn, a senior at Brockton High School, made the history-making score on Oct. 7 when in the third quarter of the game, she rushed in for a four-yard touchdown against Dartmouth, her first in a varsity game. The team went on to beat the opposing squad, 50-7.

News of her big moment caught the attention of the Patriots, who sent over a football that contained a note from Kraft.
