Amanda Frisbie Highlights

Check out this highlight reel for UP 2010 recruit Amanda Frisbie. It looks like she can do it all!

Nice. I like the headband...a la Wynn (McCintosh...spelling?) or Sinclair.

Lord, I dislike watching soccer played on fields with hashmarks. That always ticks me off.

Holy Crap!

We have a young Cristine Sinclair coming in next season!!!

I thought Michelle Cruz was our great stiker coming in next season?

How about 5 goals a game as a goal for next season?

We also have 2 of the best high school GK in the country coming in next year. (What? You didn't think Hailee DeYoung was going to have competition next August???)

I do love recruiting!

Pretty impressive!! She'll be playing in front of a few more people next year than in some of those clips.

Awesome! The best thing I noticed about Amanda is the pace of her shots! What a cannon! Her blasts seem as strong as Megan Rapinoe's!! We need more shots like that...shots kicked with conviction!!

GO PILOTS!!!

Doesn't seem to have much of a right foot though. Her drives seem to hit the mark, what about her putting?

Ooooh! I'm so excited!!!

Do either Amanda Frisbee or Veronica Perez have the speed to complement our not so fast forwards similar to combining a Michelle with a Dani or a Hallie? But like Amanda's longer range shots in her video that can come in handy such as in the UW game.

This is a good point. We may have a lot of left-footed players next year. If I'm remembering correctly from having seen her once this year, I think Sarah Bridges is also naturally left-footed (she scored on an in-swinging corner from the right side) and Kendall seems most comfortable with her left.

Without knowing for sure - just from observations - I would say Kendall is STRONGLY left footed, not just more comfortable with her left. I believe her last goal was with her right foot, from in close, but I wouldn't be surprised if improving her right foot will be a project over the off-season. When you see her making her runs down the sideline and cutting the ball back to her right foot and then heading into the middle, I don't think she looks real comfortable, not looking for her shot.

OK so Frisbie can score -- can she play defense?
If not, she will learn from some maestros.
What I like about her shots is that she does what is called for in each attacking situation -- hitting it with pace from distance, tapping it when in close, chipping it, and all with accuracy.
Thanks for the clip, SoreKnees!

Well, in general highlight films aren't wrought with timely tackling and positioning off the ball...
