About Kieran
Expert Analysis
Alejandro Guillen-Cerrato | Prep Soccer Scout
Kieran is an immensely talented forward headed to Xavier University. She is one of the best, if not the best, attacking talents in her region of the state. A constant threat both in and out the box, in her entire youth career, she struck fear into opposing defenders. This has translated to the international stage, as she represented the Philippine U-17 national team. Even though she’s a child herself, she will absolutely become a role model for younger generations if she develops into the player she seems headed to become.

Kieran is a skillful and extremely technically gifted forward, skipping past defenders with remarkable ease. In situations where many players at any level would feel overwhelmed, she works her magic. She finds the tiniest pockets of space to make something happen, whether she’s on or off the ball. On the ball, she can get rid of multiple defenders with a simple but devastating body feint. Off the ball, she always positions herself in an area where she can receive the ball. She also keeps the defenders busy with her off the ball movements, in turn tiring them out to run at them later. Her shooting is also fantastic, finding the target from difficult positions. After making space for herself, she always looks to get a shot off. More often than not, she’ll bag a great goal, topping off her offensive brilliance.

Bradley is a player that sees the forest for the trees. She is all about movement. She moves incredibly well off the ball, constantly moving and shifting the defense, creating space and occupying space. When on the ball, she likes to move the ball quickly. She is as comfortable playing facing goal as she is with her back to goal. She makes a pass and then moves, and looks to be dangerous. She can really cut the ball back or switch feet well to create a shot, showing the ability to create on her own. Her ability to make well-timed runs or come across the face of goal and be available also make her a dangerous scoring threat.

Read EvaluationJR Eskilson | Prep Soccer Scout
Bradley is a winger on the Wilmington Hammerheads 08 ECNL team. She is a talented attacking player. Tall, quick, and skillful on the ball, Bradley regularly creates an advantage for her side. When watching game film, Bradley feels like an unstoppable force. She is this wave of energy that comes at the outside back with an undeniable force. Bradley might be stopped once or twice, but her confidence never seems to falter and she usually finds a way to impact the game thanks to those effort plays. Bradley’s decision-making in the final third is a strong part of her game. She makes the correct read and takes a singular focus of getting to the goal as directly as possible. I would love to see her improve on her close control of the ball when playing out of tight spaces. I think she’d make a great addition to a program that looks to spring on the counter. Her direct approach and tenacity makes her a difficult player to mark in 1v1 situations. She is an easy plug-and-play recruit for the right wing.
