Although she was recently moved from the WL to her current rankings, I’m sure that in her case a ranking score doesn’t really tell how good she really is.  The early Seattle University commit is actually a highly decorated youth international player.  Hernandez has played on multiple El Salvador youth national teams and recently competed in the First Round of the concacaf U-17 Women’s tournament.  Although her team is not advancing to the U-17 World Cup, we will surely be seeing her play at some of the highest stages of soccer in the near future.  While evaluating her on 4 or more occasions, one of her signature plays is sending a long ball right to the feet of her teammates or sending it perfectly behind the defense when they are running in full stride. Her movements and closing techniques are top-notch.  Her style of play involves clean tackles as well as getting physical when needed, but in a calm and controlled manner.

Hernandez scored for Bay Area Surf from the spot and put in an excellent midfield shift for her team. You can always tell when kids have international experience it just makes their decision making that much faster. She is an El Salvadorian international who is committed to Seattle U.

The U17 Salvadoran National Team member and Seattle University D1 commit, played a solid game at the RCB position. Hernandez has a smooth change of direction move that can twist up hard-pressing opponents. She also makes clean and precise passes to nearly any spot on the pitch. One of her signature plays is sending a long ball right to the feet of her teammates or sending it perfectly behind the defense when they are running in full stride. Her movements and closing techniques are top-notch.

The El Salvadorian Youth National team player showed her pedigree on Saturday. So comfortable dribbling into midfield from center back and distributing. She’s a physical player who moves other bodies very well. She’s on a very good De Anza Force team who should compete for an ECNL National Championship this year. Many national team players are faced with a choice of pursuing a professional opportunities or college scholarships and Hernandez will be no different.
