She had a somewhat box-to-box role with the team and made a major impact with her intensity and consistency. Staudenmyer was very good on the ball around the midfield line, creating space with quick and smart turns, and managed to get the ball upfield with strong runs through the middle on multiple occasions. The midfielder also delivered in the final, constantly supporting the team's offense and picking the best passing options and releasing the ball at the right time.    <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepsoccer.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2026/03/2J4A0079_fba15f.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-353982" /></figure>    Salas had a great shift in her team [program_tooltip program_id='283648' first='FC' last='Dallas'] RL G10's 3-3 tie with [program_tooltip program_id='283311' first='Dallas' last='Texans'] G10 in the U16 Division. A defensive midfielder, she was very active in the center of the field, dispossessing opponents with strong tackles and showing great quickness to be the first to get to second balls. Salas also took care of the ball when she had it at her feet, dealing with opponents' press efficiently and moving the ball quickly. She also stepped forward to support the offense on some occasions, playing some nice, direct passes that found her teammates between the lines.    <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepsoccer.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2026/03/2J4A0165_39cdf3.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-353997" /></figure>    Corbin led [program_tooltip program_id='283648' first='FC' last='Dallas'] G12 from the backline in their 2-1 comeback win over Coppell FC 12G Davies in the U14 Division. Her team was down 1-0 at the start of the second half when it had a player sent off, and the center back's excellent performance helped them offset their disadvantage and come out on top. Corbin was defending 1v1 in space for almost the second half and was very good at it, winning every duel she got into and giving her teammates the confidence to go forward and push for goals. A vocal leader, the defender also showed serious quality on the ball, connecting some difficult passes out of the back and dribbling it into the final third to support their chance-creation.    <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepsoccer.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2026/03/2J4A0169_4caa43.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-353998" /></figure>    Barrett led the line for Solar SC G10 in their 6-0 win over [program_tooltip program_id='283648' first='FC' last='Dallas'] White RL NTX G09 in the U17 Division. The focal point of her team's offense, she had a hat-trick and excelled in every aspect of the game at the striker position. Despite the difficulties in tracking the ball down in long passes due to the windy conditions, Barrett managed to get to the end of many of them, working very well with her back to the goal. The forward also made well-time behind the backline, drifted wide and moved closer to her teammates to combine, offering options every time Solar had the ball in the final third. Barrett was excellent with her positioning inside the box, too, getting to the end of many crosses.     Harris was one of the most consistent players in her [program_tooltip program_id='295496' first='Dallas' last='Surf'] 09 GA team in their 1-1 tie with Solar SC South 09G Cameron in the U17 Division. She played multiple roles for the team during the match, showing great versatility and the ability to adjust to different roles. Harris played right back in a moment in which Surf was under heavy pressure in the second half and held her own, using her physical tools to dominate her zone and not allow opponents to make plays out wide. She then moved to right winger and managed to make good plays by combining with her teammates out wide and fired a dangerous shot in the final minutes of the match.    <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepsoccer.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2026/03/2J4A0274_579045.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-354026" /></figure>
