Natalie is a terrific midfielder. She is a threat from any angle on the offensive end and operates exceptionally well from X and towards the wings with both drives and looking to assist. She has great timing in transition for a fast break by matching speed with her teammate and making the defender slide towards ball off from her so she can slip into space and finish with a hard shot on goal. She will continue to utilize her non-dominant hand and challenge herself to be more creative with her dodges. Her outstanding hustle in 1v1’s is superb with good positioning, footwork, and matching stick to stick of her opponent’s. Her hustle for 50/50 ground balls and causing key turnovers on the defensive end are spectacular
