VIDEO: Ka'imi Fairbairn breaks UCLA record with 60-yard field goal
Robert Hanashiro-USA TODAY Sports
UCLA's Ka'imi Fairbairn made some history in the dying seconds of the second quarter of Thursday night's game against California.
The senior kicker booted a school-record 60-yard field goal as the first half ended to give the Bruins a 26-10 lead heading into the break.
The try was originally from 55 yards, but a false start penalty on UCLA pushed it back five yards, which the Hawaiian-born Fairbairn handled with ease.
Martin Gramatica set the NCAA record of 65 yards while playing for Kansas State in 1998.
