<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The club season in Georgia is going strongly as seven players are using this time of showcases to display their skills. These seven players are demonstrating just how talented they are, and with one of them already committed, the younger players are nearing their opportunity to be recruited as more from this group should be playing college soccer in the future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='21842' first='Madyson' last='Bentil'], Attacking Midfielder, Class of 2025</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The lone junior and lone college commit among the seven, Bentil is an incredibly talented player. As a No. 10, she is so smooth on the ball, showing great agility and creativity. She is also a very confident player, whether pushing forward or harassing a defensive player in possession. She plays with great resilience and determination, truly leading her team and setting the tone. She plays for Loganville High, and plays club for Concorde Fire Platinum. She is committed to the University of Houston. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='111999' first='Emmala' last='Blackmon'], Forward, Class of 2026</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Blackmon displays versatility because she can play as a forward on either side, featuring as a No. 7 or a No. 11. This means she is dynamic and can use both feed. The St. Pius X Catholic standout also plays for Concorde Fire's Platinum 2008 team. She is physically gifted, but on top of that she is passionate and dedicated to the game, is coachable, team-oriented and is happy to contribute in any way possible. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='107137' first='Courtney' last='Cangialosi'], Central Midfielder, Class of 2026</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cangialosi is a product of Kennesaw, playing high school with Harrison High and playing on the Tophat 2008 GA Gold team. The central midfielder is very talented, showing great quickness and speed along with excellent technical skills, which make her a dynamic midfielder. She is also a very smart player, making great decisions while displaying the vision needed in a facilitator role, and plays truly unselfishly. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='21542' first='Amaya' last='Jackson'], Midfielder, Class of 2026</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jackson plays on the 2008 Gwinnett Soccer Academy, showing excellent versatility as she will feature as a No. 6, a No. 8 and can play center back if needed. She plays high school at Brookwood High in Snellville. Jackson has a motor and that is putting it lightly. She has a great amount of endurance, plays with passion but also is always calm and collected. She has a strong tactical understanding of the game as well. Jackson also has great abilities as she is incredibly technical and she is very strong. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":154050,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepsoccer.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2023/11/A645F5ED-FD64-4283-9B92-445811593051_1_105_c-crop-597x392-1699890780.jpeg?w=596" alt="" class="wp-image-154050" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Photo: David Leonard</figcaption></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='140264' first='Logan' last='Leonard-Myers'], Keeper, Class of 2027</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The first of two freshman on the list, Leonard-Myers plays at Maynard Jackson High and plays with Gwinnett Soccer Academy. She is a keeper who plays without fear as she will come out for corners and set pieces with disregard for herself, only thinking of her team. She will also come out quickly to close the angle on an attacking player. She is also good with the ball at her feet, distributing well. Leonard-Myers is also a great communicator, which is key for keepers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='141074' first='Bethany' last='Poklemba'], Outside Defender, Class of 2027</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Poklemba is a right back, playing high school at North Paulding High, and playing for Tophat's 2008 GA Navy team. As an outside defender, she shows great quickness and agility in getting up and down the touch line. She shows good vision when it comes from playing a ball up the line or whipping a ball into the box. Poklemba shows great poise and in addition to those attributes, she is a team-first player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kendall Washington, Defender, Class of 2026</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Washington can play either centrally in defense or on the outside. She attends Lassiter High and her club is Concorde Fire's 2007 ECNL team. Currently, she is recovering from an ACL tear. When Washington is healthy, you will see an impact player and when she returns, she will be a force. She is very aggressive and strong, playing strongly both mentally and physically. She has a strong IQ and because she sees the pitch well, she is calm under pressure. A passionate player, Washington is also all about her team first.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

The club season in Georgia is going strongly as seven players are using this time of showcases to display their skills.
