Expert Analysis
JR Eskilson | Prep Soccer Scout
The Player of the Match from the ECNL National Championship game has certainly helped her stock. The center back from GTFC Impact 08 scored the second goal of the game on a kick from the spot as her squad raced out to a 2-0 lead in the opening five minutes. She plays as the left center back for her club side. She is right footed. Competitiveness and determination are the two key attributes that stand out from Gayhart’s game. There is never a moment in the game when it doesn’t feel like Gayhart is giving her all. She has the quality to be an early contributor at the next level – and some versatility in her game. She is a better open field defender than most center backs in this class. She will put in a tackle and does well in anticipating the long touch getting away from the attacker so she can get stuck in. She is athletic and there have been some games earlier this season when she’s joined the attack with the ball at her feet and ripped off a shot or provided a key pass. I don’t think that showed as much in the playoffs as she played a more purposeful game with emphasis on her defensive responsibilities, but scouts should note that attribute in her player profile as a possibility at outside back in the future. Gayhart’s steady improvement over the past couple of years suggest she will be a player capable of taking on the challenge of playing against older competition soon and adjusting to the physical nature of the game at the next level.
