Expert Analysis
Matt Smith | Prep Soccer Scout
Rogers is a Michigan State commit and Sparty is getting a tremendous player. When you see her play, one thing that stands out is that she just wants it more than anyone else on the pitch. She seems determined to beat defenders at any cost. She is incredibly well-balanced, making her hard to knock off the ball as she can be physical with strong central defenders. She is so good on the ball that she can keep possession when fighting for space, and she is so athletic that if given any space at all, she will beat a defender. She’s also very cool when it comes to finishing, showing she can beat you with power, ball placement or slotting a ball home past a wrong-footed keeper.

Rogers was a difference-maker for Eclipse Select against Sting Austin with her ability to beat opponents off the dribble and create chances. She played most of the match as an attacking midfielder, but also spent some time up top, and in both positions was a nightmare for opposing defenders. A lefty, she was very aggressive on the ball and scored the game-winning goal in a strong run through the middle which she finished with a beautiful right-footed shot that went into the upper corner. Rogers also played with good intensity off the ball, putting pressure on defenders and forcing them to play long.

Rogers was electric in the midfield for Eclipse, creating real problems for GSA’s backline with her movement. She scored an early goal by getting on the end of a low cross with a strong and intelligent run into the penalty and that made things considerably easier for Eclipse. Rogers was very quick in her mind and on the ball and allowed opponents no opportunity to stop her. She also did a very good job of dropping deeper and helping her team create chances with good combination plays.
