<p>Given how talented the committed players for the class of 2027 are, I thought it necessary to look at those not committed yet. I chose the following players from the same <a href="https://prepsoccer.com/north-carolina/rankings/girls/2027-rankings/" id="https://prepsoccer.com/north-carolina/rankings/girls/2027-rankings/">ranking</a> I used for the <a href="https://prepsoccer.com/2026/03/class-of-2027-committed-players-to-watch/" id="https://prepsoccer.com/2026/03/class-of-2027-committed-players-to-watch/">previous article</a>. These players are immensely talented and are still only in their junior year of high school. Being uncommitted is only a temporary condition for them, and I'd love to come back next year to write regarding an update.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Lia is an intelligent attacking player who performs best in central areas. Whether she plays as a 9, false 9, or attacking midfielder, she'll perform spectacularly. Her brilliant technical ability might also allow her to play deeper down the pitch if need be. One of her most crucial and impressive attributes is her press resistance. She can be surrounded by multiple players, but she'll clear this pressure with a simple shoulder drop. Under pressure, she makes sure not to give up her dominant role in attack. Combining this with her great agility and dribbling makes her a very progressive player in a difficult area of the pitch. Her shooting is also great. She has no issue taking shots from far and making sure they present real danger. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Maya is a goalkeeper that any possession-based team would love. She's adventurous and brave, more often than not coming far off her line to aid in building out from the back. I previously said that she plays a role similar to that of a defensive midfielder in possession. When you watch her play, you see exactly what I mean. Her passes are also just as good as you would expect from a defensive midfielder in teams like this. Though there aren't many teams that require such an extreme involvement from their keeper, they will 100% benefit from her ability and mentality. Her goalkeeping is also just as secure. The stereotype of a ball-playing keeper not being a good shot-stopper is not present with her.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Previously, I had written about Savanna's attacking prowess for her school team. This remains just as true today as well as translating truthfully for her academy. However, she has also shown immense talent playing as a full-back. She can play on either side thanks to her ambidexterity. On either side, she proves to be an aggressive, yet clean, defender. Before, I said that, when she plays as a 9, she gives defenders nightmares with her movements and physicality. As a full-back, she does the exact same to attackers. She is fast and strong, dispossessing wingers easily. Shoulder-to-shoulder duels are her strongest attribute, making sure the attacker can't advance or recover in time to get the ball back. Her mastery of any position she plays in is a brilliant attribute that can be used by any team.</p>
