Campbell is a very promising midfielder whose size may confuse people who watch her play, which gives her an advantage. She is incredibly technical and agile, beating defenders easily without much effort. Being 6’2 doesn’t hinder her in tight spaces either. She’ll find her way out of difficult situations constantly. In space, she shows how fast she can be. In these spaces, she’ll take the ball forward with the determination needed for the position she plays. This aggressive directness makes her almost unstoppable. Her movements into open spaces in the box are fantastic. She enters the box undetected and scores goals for fun.

Schmidt is a player who should keep her phone fully charged in June. She is going to have a lot of interest from scouts. She’s among the best midfielders in the country who has not been in a Youth National Team camp. She’s a commanding presence on the field with her towering height and athleticism. She’s got exceptional qualities as a passer and playmaker. She’s been a key part of the Charlotte SA 2010 team and continues to elevate the play of those around her as well.

Schmidt is going to have plenty of options for the next level given her unlimited potential. Getting her into meaningful minutes immediately could be the key to unleashing her potential as a professional player in the future.

Schmidt is the player with the most potential in this class. Standing over six-feet tall, she’s hard to miss on the Charlotte squad. She can play in the midfield or at forward. Perhaps could even play in the defense, but I’ve yet to see it on game film. She’s had games this season when she was the most dominant player on the field. Considering the level of her teammates, this is a huge compliment. The push for Schmidt to get to the next level – youth national team – is the consistency. She’s also had games when she wasn’t impactful. The framework is there for a player who could be considered among the top players in the country. If Schmidt continues to work on her craft, she will be a name that ends up at one of the top programs.
