She is ranked 41st by PrepSoccer in her class. A versatile forward who finds a way to leave her mark, she shows the ability to make well-timed runs and uses her speed to outpace defenders. She's comfortable creating for others as she likes to cut in and lay off a nicely placed ball into the box, or she drifts wide and sends in a nice cross. She's a great finisher, she can use either foot, and is calm in a crowd of defenders.   [player_tooltip player_id='63990' first='Finlee' last='Mills'], Forward   Check the same <a href="http://Mills is a rising junior at Palos Verdes High and she is a forward who can play as either a No. 7 or No. 11 and can do both with great skill. She can use either foot, she has excellent speed on the outside and what really stands out about her when you watch her play is her game-changing ability to change direction. She wrong foots defenders all of the time and uses that skill to open up space. She is a clever player with great vision and passing ability to go with her determination when she's in the final third as she is always looking to deliver a good ball or mix it up in the box with defenders and get a shot on goal.">link</a> for Mills, who earned some accolades a month ago. She is ranked 24th as we near the beginning of a new ECNL season. This wide forward is a player with the ability to impact the game with her change of pace and change of direction. She opens up play and then uses her skills and vision to be dangerous or to set her teammates up. She's very calm on the ball in the final third.   [player_tooltip player_id='82879' first='Ava' last='Ybarra'], Attacking Midfielder   Ybarra is ranked 61st by PrepSoccer, but with an arrow after seeing her clips on <a href="https://x.com/AvaYbarra_17">X</a>. She is in control of her body, in control of the ball and in control of her spacing at all times. She plays fast, but never reckless. She uses her body well to shield defenders, lets the ball run and then uses a quick first step to get back on the ball. She can get towards goal quickly and beat defenders, and she can slot a ball home. She also scores from distance. She's a commanding presence in the midfield, receiving the ball well and playing physically.   [player_tooltip player_id='82480' first='Olivia' last='Young'], Attacking Midfielder/Forward   While not technically ranked as of right now, Young is on the rankings waitlist, meaning she is on our list at PrepSoccer and on the cusp. She plays as a No. 10 or can play out wide as a forward. She's quick and creative, and when in the middle of the attack, she lays the ball off and continues her run well. She looks to make an impact offensively as she is wants to get a shot on goal and can do so with one touch, or create space and fire off a shot from range.
