Kelley is a midfielder on the Mustang SC 2011/2012 ECNL team. She was part of the US Club Soccer id2 National Tour Team that went to England. She was identified by scouts from that program as one of the best midfielders in the country.

Kelley has shown through the opening games of the season that she deserves that title. She’s excellent at a lot of little things. Kelley checking her shoulders before receiving the ball immediately stood out from game film. She’s constantly scanning, taking snapshots of the opposition, and planning her next pass way before the ball gets to her.

She’s got the telltale signs of a midfielder who is going to reach the top level of the game. Her quality on the ball is excellent. Her decision-making is impressive especially when she has to improvise from a broken play. She’s one who should be getting looks from the National Team in the near future.
