“As an opposing coach, I think Carson presents a unique challenge to stop her remarkable skill set. Carson has developed into such a dynamic player that she’s no longer limited to only one way of beating you. If you play her tight, she’ll use her power and quickness to turn on a dime and you’ll be left in the dust. If you choose to lay off her, she’ll square you up and blow by you with top-level speed. Carson is as talented and composed a forward as any male or female athlete I’ve seen on a soccer field and, unfortunately for us, she’s only a junior.”
