• New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. I struck the first hook because it makes her second. ALT1 is adequate, but a little flat as a hook. Perhaps you want to add that it was a newly created position? Too bad you don't have any more details about her personal life from which to draw more hook information. Only one QPQ is needed for this nomination, so please save the second for another time. Yoninah (talk) 19:21, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

• @Yoninah: I've researched further and made ALT1 a bit more interesting. The new hook is at ALT1b. Eagles 24/7 (C) 20:52, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

• Thank you! ALT1b hook ref verified and cited inline. I piped the link to the acronym of the NFL so it won't say "football" twice in the hook. ALT1b good to go. Yoninah (talk) 21:14, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
