“Mahoney is good with both feet, making it tough to deny her attacking opportunities. We specifically game-planned for her in our state quarterfinal game, and she managed to give us headaches despite our efforts to mark her out of the game. She interchanges positions well, which is one of the reasons for our struggle with her. If we deny her shots, she gets dangerous crosses in.”
