Expert Analysis
JR Eskilson | Prep Soccer Scout
Donahue is one of the standouts on the PDA Blue 09 ECNL team. She plays as one of the back three, on the right side. She was a key piece for the team last season in the run to Richmond. She is a strong defender, but there are times when she plays it a bit safe. She could afford to be more physical as an on-ball defender and limit the opposition’s options with her a bit more aggression and physicality. The potential is definitely there for that type of shutdown center back. Frankly, the professional potential is there – and considering that this is a nitpick on a player who is already among the best in her position in the ECNL. She reads the game well and sets a good line for the offside trap. She is comfortable on the ball and rarely waste a touch. She regularly breaks the ankles of forwards with her fakes on the ball. PDA uses her as a target on corner kicks with her ability in aerial duels. There is a lot to love about Donahue’s game and plenty of reasons to believe she will be the top defender in this class in the future.
