Both, along with Freddy Adu and a Lindsey Huie a U-21 girl, have been nominated for Best U.S. Goal of the Year at the Youth Level. There's a link in here.. http://wakeforestsports.ocsn.com/sports/m-soccer/spec-rel/112003aaa.html
my impression I saw Curfman at the ACC tournament this past week, and my impression was that he was a big, slow, non-skilled, kinda dorky player with no quickness and little toughness. But he could make some good passes. I only saw him for two games though. imo
Re: my impression You must have been looking at someone else. Steven is not big--actually he's a tad skinny. He's definitely fast. He has great skill. You're right that he's a tad soft, but then he's a year younger than most freshmen, and I'm sure he'll make the adjustment to the college game. Give him time.
Non-skilled. Hm. Did you look at this video? Also, he just turned 17 in October. Graduated HS a year early.
Who were you watching..... I think you might have been watching Amir Lowery at the WFU game....big guy, kinda slow, not to skilled, just wins balls and sprays a couple good passes...kinda a wrecking ball in the middle of the park Cause the description def doesnt fit Curfman... By the way, my vote went to Testo's 80 yd bomb
Re: Who were you watching..... Testo!? It's gotta be Curfman or Adu against Poland. Testo had an open net, not that big of a deal. But, you're probably less likely to ever see that happen again.
I saw him against Maryland earlier in the year and though he was a sub and probably only got about 40 minutes of run, I thought that he was one of hte best players Wake had. I was surprised that he was playing more of a midfield role after seeing him exclusively on D with the U-17's but his skill was clearly evident. Good touch on the dribble, good vision and comparatively good passing. I think he's going to do well there and in the future.
