For those who haven't seen this yet... “She’s quick. She creates a lot of chances with her burst of speed because she can get by that first defender,” said Namazi. “She needs to improve in her runs and how to get herself open.

If she knew how to open herself up and get open with good runs, I think she would score a lot of goals.” The rest of the article is at: http://sandiegospirit.com/press_room/spotlight_on/350339.html
Lasy year during pre-season the Breakers played a local B15 team. The boys identified Allie as the only speed threat so she became the target of some nasty tackles. After getting completely upended and landing on her shoulder (an injury that kept her out of the first few games), Allie got up and went after the kid that stood 4 inches taller. She is quite the competitor. I wish her the best.
