Caitlyn is an intelligent and skilled central midfielder who has the poise and the vision to make a successful transition to the college game. She is capable of delivering well-timed passes with great weight behind opponent defensive lines. Caitlyn also has the tactical discipline and soccer IQ to keep possession of the ball when forward progress is not the best option. Caitlyn has played a significant role in State Championship and State Qualifier teams where playing to win every game is part of the team culture. We are looking forward to seeing her on the field as part of our program next fall."
