Dirk Borgognone
Dirk Borgognone (born January 9, 1968) is a former National Football League placekicker who currently holds the record for the longest field goal ever kicked in the history of high school football, 68 yards. High school career Borgognone attended Reno High School, initially playing as a soccer player. He soon switched to football and was trained in a "straight-on" kicking style. On Friday, September 27, 1985, he kicked the longest field goal in high school football history, during a game at Sparks High School. The kick measured 68 yards and was longer than any that had ever been successfully kicked in the NFL or the NCAA. Borgognone was thereafter relegated solely to kicks of over 50 yards and missed all eight of his subsequent attempts, failing to make another field goal the rest of his high school career. He would convert three field goals in a subsequent all-star game, being named the game's MVP.Santoro, Joe (2005)For a moment in time, he was The Kid Who Made The Kick RGJ.com. ...
