She is the No. 1 rated player from the class of 2027 and she plays on the this Legends team with the 2025's. She played a lot as a freshman for the top high school girls program in the state at Santa Margarita and continues to improve because she's playing against top notch, older competition. Watch her play and there is no doubt that she belongs. She is exceptionally talented with the ball at her feet, consistently beating defenders, putting them into the spin cycle and creating for herself and her teammates. She is so proficient with either foot, whether she's carrying the ball down the pitch, splitting defenders with a perfectly placed ball or sending a cracking shot on the frame of goal.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["145314"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67138bc25b5a6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Goettsche is a BYU commit and is a versatile player who can feature as a forward or a midfielder. This is because she can be a creative playmaker or be the one on the end of that, finishing and scoring goals. She's a talented finisher, showing composure and coolness in front of goal, and also showing the ability to create space for herself to get a shot off as she is very subtle, but talented with manipulating the ball at her feet. She also shows good vision and precise passing ability which allows her to create for her teammates. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["77850"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67138bc25b5f0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hamm is committed to the University of Indiana and the future Hoosier is a really exciting outside defender. She plays as a right back and plays with passion, with pace and with tenacity. She is a fantastic 1v1 defender, making physical challenges and winning the ball with well-timed tackles and the ability to dispossess. She's also very speedy as she is a former forward, showing the ability to get up and down the pitch incredibly quickly and she is excellent on the ball, very good about cutting in and letting wide players underlap, creating goal-scoring opportunities. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["20324"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67123a1aa2132"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Toscano has a long, athletic frame and is a physical presence which makes her imposing when she's in the area, hunting goals. However, she's much more than just a goal scorer as she is a finesse player as well. Her ability to finish and put the ball where she wants in the net is terrific. She also shows an understanding of other delicate parts of the game, making well-timed runs and showing the ability to stay onside. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["19264"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67123a1aa2174"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ward is a USC commit and is a dynamic and impactful player. As technically sound as they come, Ward is fantastic on the ball and is looking to create and make plays when she has the opportunity. She's quick, shows great stop and start and also shows next level cleverness and creativity. She can play a nice ball, anticipates well and is good about finding the right space to be in or play a ball into.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["19490"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67123a1aa21ae"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wieler understands body control as the Idaho State commit knows how to use her whole body to make saves, especially when her momentum is going in one direction. She gets big and plays aggressively when attackers get into her area, becoming an intimidating force that is hard to beat. She is also very aggressive and decisive when it is time to come out and get a ball as she does not get stuck in two minds. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>XXXX</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>XXXX</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
