We might be seeing some future national team call-ups from this group.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Featured Players:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='111857' first='Lili' last='Roberts'] - High School: The Wesleyan School - Uncommitted</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='111859' first='Hailey' last='Stoddard'] - High School: Denmark - Auburn commit</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='21614' first='Carly' last='Watt'] - High School: Harrison - Oklahoma State commit</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='111876' first='Maci' last='Tucker'] - High School: Hillgrove - UCLA commit</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='111873' first='Emmarie' last='Nichols'] - High School: Blessed Trinity Catholic - Uncommitted</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Player #1 - [player_tooltip player_id='111857' first='Lili' last='Roberts'] - High School: The Wesleyan School - Uncommitted</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["111857"],"_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-691e9b27e2ed9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lili is a high-level player with the ability to finish with both feet.  She has excellent ball control, and she distributes the ball with precise, clean passes.  She is a player who can operate effectively on both ends of the field.  When playing up top as a forward, her natural ability as a scorer is a definitive strength.  She can also track back and contribute on defense while playing the mid as a box-to-box player. Lili was also recognized as an All-American by NCSAA and Gwinnett County Player of the Year in 2025.  Roberts would be a great addition to any top-level team looking for a dual-threat player.
