Her movement on and off the ball typically disorganizes opposing backlines as she's very intelligent with her positioning and extremely difficult to dispossess when she has the ball. Silverio uses her solo runs when sees an opportunity, but also does a very good of connecting with her teammates and creating chances through combination plays. She plays with a lot of energy and puts tremendous pressure on opposing defenders when they have the ball. Silverio also shoots very well from distance and is a threat on set pieces.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-664d19f68361e"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://x.com/stingblk06ghart/status/1729120099452514546","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/stingblk06ghart/status/1729120099452514546 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["85949"],"_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":"Patterson will be in action with Solar SC ENCL 07 RL in College Station when they play Rise SC GA, Broomfield Soccer Club and Arkansas Rising RL. She's a handful for opposing defenders with her ability to progress the ball and beat opponents in transition. Patterson can play on the wings, benefiting from her pace and high-energy game to beat opponents off the dribble and create chances, or more centrally, where her runs in behind the backline can be lethal. The forward is very calm and efficient in front of the goal and also provides great service on corner kicks.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-664d19f683685"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69X1uh7Ld1U","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69X1uh7Ld1U </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":"Danna Cisneros","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_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":"Mesquite","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"DKSC","_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":"Cisneros and her DKSC 08 RL team are scheduled to face Albion Hurricanes FC ECNL RL, Vegas United SC and Rise SC GA in the event.
