Natalie Robinson, a biology and environmental sciences teacher at Calvin Coolidge Senior High School in Washington D.C., isn't just "teach" anymore. She's "coach."
The 29-year-old was introduced Friday as the new head coach of the school's football team.
Robinson said, "Head Coach is a big, a big job for anybody. ... That's pretty cool. But I really want to make sure that I give the best that I can for the kids."
Robinson was a wide receiver for five years for the pro women's football team, the D.C. Divas. She also played on special teams.
Her former teammates say she's got the right stuff.
Jordyn White, former teammate, told CBS News, "When you meet her, you may think that's she's you know, meek and mild, but she's tough as nails."
