in 2010, harshbarger tried her luck with the chicago cardinals. after showing up to multiple tryouts, harshbarger was cut before the season started for the cardinals. 3 weeks into the season, the team called her back and asked for her to play due to their kicking woes. this made harshbarger the 2nd woman ever to play in the cifl, the first being katie hnida of the fort wayne firehawks. hnida went on to make an extra point in the firehawks opener, thus becoming the first female to ever score a point in the cifl. hashbarger would however, become the first ever female to make a field goal in an indoor football professional game. she connected with a 24-yard field goal against the firehawks in a 69-45 loss. for the season she was 1 for 16 on field goal attempts and 4 for 11 on pat's.
