Sarah Fuller (born June 20, 1999) is an American former soccer player who was a goalkeeper for Minnesota Aurora FC in the USL W League. She began her college soccer career with the Vanderbilt Commodores, where she also played college football as a placekicker.

Fuller became a starter with Vanderbilt's soccer team as a senior in 2020, when she helped lead the Commodores to a conference tournament championship in the Southeastern Conference (SEC). Six days later, she became the first woman to play in a football game for a Power Five conference team when she kicked off for the Commodores against Missouri on November 28, 2020.[2][3] Two weeks later against Tennessee, Fuller kicked an extra point to become the first woman to score in a Power Five football game. The following season, she moved to the North Texas Mean Green as a graduate transfer.
