He was a really good soccer player in high school, and during football season at Ga Tech, one of their kickers got hurt, not really sure of the whole story, but they ended up asking Nomar to walk on and kick, and he was their starting kicker for atleast one game I know of for sure and did rather well. But the athletic director informed both coaches, since he was receivin a full ride in baseball he couldn't play another sport so he had to quit.
