Expert Analysis
Roshelle Gobin | Prep Soccer Scout
Kersh is more attack‑minded player but shows tactically ability of a defender in her style of play. The left forward uses athleticism to read defenders and exploit gaps. She times runs, presses aggressively, and finishes with clinical composure. Her scoring rate of 28 goals in six games highlights elite finishing. She brings defensive physicality to her attacking game, winning duels and recovering quickly to support the back line. The result is a player who looks effortless while blending relentless offense with disciplined defending.

Kersh was the star in the Championship game with three goals, which were her only goals from the event. The attacker helped in the attack with assist and key passes. She showed that talent, which makes her one of the best in the nation.

Bristol Kersh, Tophat Gold – Kersh continues to impress at the top level with her play. She’s got a different pace of play than most of her peers. She burst past defenders and always looks like she is fully in control. She had a nice finish with her left foot in the win over St. Louis Development Academy.

One of if not the biggest name left on the board Kersh is headed to Notre Dame. Currently undefeated and ranked #5 in the country the Fighting Irish get a big time score off the field as well with Kersh committing her future in 2027. I believe she will be a day 1 difference maker.

Read EvaluationLindsay Avant | Prep Soccer Scout
While playing as a left back, she was able to get forward into the attacking third of the field and serve as another threat for TopHat. Her short passes, through balls, and long balls were often a catalyst for the TopHat offense. Additionally, she has a great understanding of positioning and knew when she needed to recover on defense.

Playing Left Wing Back for her Tophat side Kersh always draws a big crowd of scouts at her games. The youth national team player played well today against a very stout Almaden side. Her athletic gifts are eye popping. She’s fast, strong, deceptive, powerful and can run through a defender or around them. Such a high ceiling for this young talent.

I believe Kersh has the best athletic profile in this group. She’s big, she’s fast, she can decelerate and change direction at an elite level. Super competitive and loves contact. She’s like the bully on the playground that steals your lunch money and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. Strikes the ball with more venom than most pros.

She’s a star plain and simple. She is one of the strongest players I’ve ever seen. Loves a physical battle and won every single one today. Gets a lot of separation from defenders in a short amount of time. Amazing first step. Tophat is a top club and has produced one of the best players in the country.

What a player. Kersh doesn’t show up on the scoresheet in this one, but it’s hard to deny her impact. The winger was a force from the opening whistle and gave the opposition all sorts of problems. She continues to improve in her 1v1 quality. Her ability to navigate against tight pressure with quick combination play is the clearest suggestion that this is a player with a professional level upside in the near future.
