I-10 Shootout – Forwards Who Made a Difference

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It was a busy weekend for girls' high school soccer in Texas with one the most traditional tournaments, the I-10 Shootout, taking place between Thursday and Saturday in eight high school campuses in the Katy area.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Soccer followed some of the action, watching four matches during the first two days of the event, and seeing eight of the 64 teams - Atascocita, Bridgeland, Cy-Fair, Deer Park, Fort Bend Clements, Friendswood, Lake Highlands and Memorial - make really interesting things on the field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>During this week, we're navigating through each position and featuring some of the players from these teams that left a really strong impression. The only position we have left is forward, so let's not waste any more time and jump into it.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["26303"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Robinson was easily the most complete and talent forward I got to watch last week as was huge for her Bridgeland team. She's a player who can hurt teams in a variety of ways as her skill set is truly impressive and diversified. Robinson has an excellent pace and is really hard to catch when running on an open field. She can also combine with her teammates and make plays coming from the wing. Very tall, Robinson can also work as a target striker, playing with her back to the goal and getting the ball to her feet to make plays. In any of these positions, she's also a fabulous finisher, who will not miss from close range.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63c856b94e01c"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://x.com/grtorres/status/1614070872565841920?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1614070872565841920%7Ctwgr%5Ef333f921929ffbc2f849ee456d3b642803e1e0ae%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10u0026amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fprepsoccer.com%2F2023%2F01%2Fclements-bridgeland-on-to-i-10-shootout-bracket-finals%2F","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://x.com/grtorres/status/1614070872565841920?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1614070872565841920%7Ctwgr%5Ef333f921929ffbc2f849ee456d3b642803e1e0ae%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fprepsoccer.com%2F2023%2F01%2Fclements-bridgeland-on-to-i-10-shootout-bracket-finals%2F </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Chloe Le","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"103","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Fort Bend Clements","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"Rise SC","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Le was everywhere on the front line of Fort Bend Clements.

She's a player who can be dangerous from wide positions or more centrally due to her ability to dribble the ball and finish on target. Le is also very good at combining with her teammates and getting the ball back up top, where she can use her pace to make a difference.
