<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2030 class is shaping up to be among the best in recent history in California.

She would've been under consideration as the top ranked player in the 2029 class. There's a lot of praise that has been levied her way this summer from the scouts at events. <a href="https://prepsoccer.com/2025/07/ecnl-girls-quarter-finals-recap/">She even drew a comparison to Naomi Girma</a>. Those are lofty shoes to fill, but there's a path there where she could reach those levels. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["315852"],"_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-689a5044a5f40"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mastermind. Goal scorer. Leftie.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Taylor is among the best midfielders in the 2011 class in the country. She just happens to be a 2030. She is part of the US Soccer National Team in the 2011 age group, which isn't a surprise. She's also a key piece of the National Champion San Diego Surf squad. Taylor has the reputation as a key player on the Surf team. She has the physical quality to play against older competition - Surf doesn't typically promote players across age groups but will sometimes bring a team as a whole to play up an age group or two during an ECNL showcase, which would be fun to watch the Surf 2011 get a chance against 2010 teams during this club season. Taylor has the quality on the ball to shine at that level.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["315854"],"_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-689a5044a5f8f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Left back. Skillful. Pace.

She is part of the US Soccer National Team program in the 2011 age group. She's a dynamic talent from the outside back spot. A burst of pace combined with lightning quick feet and good skill, Hansen offers unique attacking talents for the position.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Club teammates Avery Johnson is another 2030 on the radar.

Ankle breaker.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Chheng is a midfielder on the San Diego Surf 2011 ECNL team. She is a box-to-box or attacking midfielder. She projects more as a box-to-box midfielder. She does a lot of the little things really well - checks her shoulders, receives the ball with the correct foot, always working off the ball to get to a passing lane. Chheng's main traits are the strong foundation, which sets her up for long term success. She does back that up with highlight reel quality on the ball. She is an excellent dribbler. She would be a top winger in this class, if she were to play on the wing. She can beat players with her first touch and body feints. When she is past the first defender, she uses her body well to leverage the trailing defender onto her hip so she keeps possession and makes any recovery effort lead to a foul. Chheng is a brilliant player who is going to be a star for a long time.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["290440"],"_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-689a5044a608c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game-saver. Excellent Passer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Vanstone is one of the top goalkeepers in the country in the 2011 age group. She might not get the credit she deserves playing behind the stellar San Diego Surf backline, but she is just as capable as any goalkeeper to make the game-deciding save. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Vanstone's quality absolutely shines in the distribution part of the game. She's an excellent passer - regardless of position. With the heavy emphasis on goalkeepers who can play with the ball at their feet, she fits that player profile perfectly. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5ytnYPo0t8","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5ytnYPo0t8 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed -->

The 2030 class is shaping up to be among the best in recent history in California. There's obviously a long way to go with this group, but the top talent in the 2030 group are influencing the action against the best 2029s in the country.
