Manning on Webster:
“Maddie is a versatile player and a leader.  We see her playing at center back, but she is comfortable anywhere in the back or midfield.  We like our defenders to be confident on the ball and Maddie is great at starting the attack.  She also hounds defensively well and has a great understanding of team defense.  We think qualities like good communication, poise and leadership are critical in center backs, and Maddie embodies these things.  She plays on one of the most skillful and successful club teams we’ve seen in the last few years.  Because of that, we think she will have a quick transition to the college game.”

Manning on Slattery:
“Taylor is a skillful attacking player. She can pass, receive, dribble and shoot with great quality. She is a threat to both create chances for her teammates and to score herself. She plays forward most of the time, but has the ability to shine in any of the front two rows. Taylor’s competitive nature is one of her most impressive qualities. She hates to lose. Her overall game fits in perfectly with our team’s style of play and fans will enjoy watching her in a Utah uniform.”
