<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In this article I feature 6 offensive standouts who caught my attention with their ability to score.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["178805"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a319c6d2c78a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='178805' first='Emerson' last='Campbell'] (pictured) was a notable standout from Stags LC. His first goal came by being in the right place at the right time, putting it away in the bottom left corner after a quick catch on the doorstep. He then used his wheels to score his second goal. Going the length of the field with the rock before fooling the goalie. Campbell then made it a hat trick when he uncorked a deceptive bounce shot that went over the keeper's shoulder. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["178837"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a319c6d2c80a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rockslide LC attackmen [player_tooltip player_id='178837' first='Luke' last='Harrison'] pulled off one of the more impressive plays that I saw at the Buku SoCal Kickoff. He split two defenders perfectly before ripping a strong underhand shot. Harrison also had a lefty snipe that he put top shelf. Expect him to create more buzz this summer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["176691"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a30c64c7d067"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Finn Reber is an incredibly entertaining attackmen to watch. He makes strong slashes to the cage when dodging, and is willing to take the extra step to greatness. His speed, feel for the game, and finishing skills are some of his top attributes. While also being a scrappy player when it comes to fighting for loose ground balls. Reber is also notably playing up for travel ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["171892"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a30c64c7cffd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mason McLay put on a show with Westward Elite at the Buku SoCal Kickoff a couple of weekends ago. He was truly getting to his spots with ease. I was also a fan of his shot placement, and how assertive he was. He finished with 6 goals in total in the game I watched. Considering his size and scoring prowess, college coaches may want to check him out this summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["177491"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a30c64c7d0b2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brody Rasmuson can unleash lasers on the run. He has some real torque and also gets his lower body into his shots. He's also a tough middie to bump off his line, as he can absorb checks. In addition to his goal scoring, he can cause turnovers on the defensive end. Thanks to his height, wingspan, and overall physicality. Expect him to be notable contributor on Westward Elite the rest of the summer. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["178835"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a30c64c7d0f7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nathan Snavely tallied 3 goals for Team 48 in their game that I watched a couple of Saturday's ago. He was getting topside, open on the crease, and had a tough goal where he was falling down. But still got enough on it get the job done. Look for him to continue to be a difference maker on the offensive end in the coming months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
