Sylvia is a solid midfielder with a strong two-way presence. On the defensive side of the ball, she makes well-timed, clean tackles and consistently disrupts her opposition. She has great composure and is very disciplined, which allows her to regain possessions fast. On the offensive side of the ball, she has excellent spatial awareness and understands how to position herself. What separates Sylvia from other midfielders is her ability to accelerate. She has a very quick first step, which allows her to close down on her opponents fast. This gives her the advantage in tight midfield battles. Sylvia has a high soccer IQ and has strong defensive fundamentals.

The Dublin high school standout was effective at ECNL Phoenix. In the two matches in which I covered, Sylvia made clean tackles on the defensive side as well as strong runs in the attacking third. Her ability to find open pockets got her into passing lanes and to the back of the net. In their game against Eagles SC on Day 1, she and Hannah Shank Hannah Shank 5'8" | F/M Las Lomas | 2028 State CA connected for a textbook classic goal. Shank ran down the edge of the 18 and froze a defender before accelerating past her, then sent a perfect pass to Fok running into space to deliver a perfectly timed one-touch left-footed shot. Sylvia is currently on the WL for both CA ranking and position. Looking forward to seeing her crack the top 100 soon.
