The National Federation of State High School Associations is challenging a record set by a Marion soccer star.

On Tuesday, Chloe DeLyser appeared to break the nation's all-time leading high school soccer scorer record when she scored her 317th goal. But the federation only counts the goals of high school players in grades nine through twelve.

Delyser scored 66 of her now record-high 319 goals when she played for Marion's varsity team in seventh and eighth grade. The association says at least two other players could have challenged the record if their states allowed them more than four seasons of varsity play.

Marion Junior/Senior High School released a statement saying in part:

"We are choosing to place Chloe's inarguable accomplishment of scoring more goals than any other female soccer player in the country above any arbitrary technicalities that would say otherwise."
