Earning second team honors last season, Birst is a keeper who is never afraid to take chances. She comes off her line with confidence and isn’t hesitant to step outside her box when needed. She can dictate the tempo, knowing when to quickly restart play or when to slow things down, demonstrating strong tactical awareness. When called upon to make a save, Birst is decisive. Her catching ability is reliable, and she rarely lets the ball spill once she commits. Her athleticism is equally impressive; she’s quick to recover from a dive and consistently shows composure in high-pressure moments and tight games. This fearless approach and consistent execution make her a name to watch in the rankings.
