She was a solid player at West Virginia. Jordan Brewster got more of the publicity, but she was more athletic. I didn’t see much offensive skill outside of her ability to dribble and some soft touch passes here and there.

I wasn’t shocked to see her sign with PSG as a flyer. Would have thought a lower league, but requisite skills were there. Not as good as Bianca St. Georges when she played there, but seemed like a good developmental prospect.

Curious to see what players play at what position, but I am feeling better at our fullback position

She seems to have some really nice dribbling/ball control skills, and that was in college...her sister is sure a fun watch!
