Mctheny lead the line for her Slammers team today extremely well. She held the ball up to combine with her midfield, chased down lost causes and pressed the So Cal Blues back line like a warrior running into battle. Her technical and tactical prowess are well beyond her years. She can create on the dribble and uses both feet. Her vision and execution of through balls when dropping deep is Harry Kane like. Excellent athlete as well moving through space efficiently.

Charlie McTheny Charlie McTheny F State CA – I thought McTheny’s assist on Slammers’ third goal was more impressive than her goal, which is saying something considering the difficulty of the finish. The Slammers forward was at her best again on Monday against a good Ohio Premier side. She was got on the end of a chance off a pass from Northrop in the transition moment of the game. She was gifted another chance with her pressure leading to a giveaway. She showed incredible skill and composure to get past the defender and then put the golden chance on the doorstep for Teagan Callahan to finish. 

McTheny is a forward on the Slammers FC HB Koge 2012 ECNL team. She is listed as a defender on her player profile, but she’s featured as a forward for the past two seasons including in the ECNL National Championship game against Surf over the summer. McTheny is from Arizona but plays for Slammers so she is included in the California rankings. She has been part of US Soccer Talent ID events in the past. She has quick feet, good strength on the ball, and the ability to play out of tight spaces. She has shown the quality to impact the game against the best of the best in this age group at the ECNL level, which suggests a future at the international stage.
