D Kaylen White, Bremen (Class of 2025)
As a freshman, she is the anchor in the heart of the defense. Although she can play outside back, her strongest position is at center back where her strong tackling ability is put on display. Technically, she is very efficient with her passing and playing out of the back. She also has the ability to play longer, driven passes to release the front players on counterattacks. In the air, she challenges and beats her player in the air often, which makes it very difficult for the opponents to attack crosses.
M Hannah New, Villa Rica (Class of 2025)
She is a very strong technical player that usually plays in the middle of the park at CAM, but she also has the versatility to play effectively out on the wing. Her short passing is very crisp, and she can play quickly to increase the tempo of the match for her team, allowing them to more easily penetrate opponent defenses. Her long-range passing ability creates many opportunities for her wingers and strikers to get in behind. She does a great job of finishing from any area around the edge of the box, as well as quality deliveries from set plays.
M Mia Bonner, Villa Rica (Class of 2024)
She is a very imposing player in midfield where she can be the engine of the team, as well as break up play very effectively. She can play either central defensive midfield or center back, but her ball-winning ability is her best asset. Once she wins the ball, she plays out of pressure exceptionally well. A tall player, she wins the ball and challenges in the air superbly for such a young high school player. She is a real threat on any attacking set piece as well as her ability to mark the best opposition out of the match on their set plays.
F Mia Showalter, Alexander (Class of 2025)
Mia is a very agile winger, who can also play center forward, especially in a twin striker setup. She is a great 1v1 player that can create time and space by beating her opponent. He ability to cross and delivery balls into the box allows her team to create great opportunities every match. She also has the ability score goals herself from distance as well as getting on the end of crosses from her teammates. She works tirelessly for the team on both the attacking and defensive ends. A truly positive influence on the rest of the team.
F Justice Rogers, Alexander (Class of 2025)
A very strong and powerful player, she constantly is putting defenses on the back foot with both her ability to get behind and score goals as well as hold up play and bring her midfield into play. She is a two-footed player that finishes very well, especially inside the box. Her ability to shoot the ball is quality, and she works for her team no matter what. She combines well with midfield. In defense, she presses constantly, allowing her team to join her higher up the field.
