Center forward. Can leave her on an island and feel confident in her chances 1v4. Skillful, dynamic, strong. Would love to see her getting more challenges against older players. She scores spectacular goals (directly from corner kicks, 30 yard bombs), but she could be a more efficient scorer in the future. Finishing more chances regularly will put her firmly in the discussion as best forward in this class.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["111549"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Goalkeeper.

Another top, top prospect from the 08 age group who is part of the 2027 class. She is the left center back for the Washington Premier FC 08 ECNL team. She immediately jumped off on the screen from game film in how she reads and anticipates. She was a step ahead of the competition because she was thinking faster. She is a calm player who is always in control. Has the physical frame to step into the college game.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_6_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='161540' first='Aliana' last='Vakaloloma']","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_6_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_6_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_6_player_details_position":"100","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_6_player_details_school":"","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_6_player_details_club_team":"Spokane Sounders","_player_evaluations_6_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_6_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_6_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"Sweeper keeper.
