I don't think it was any accident that Kreminski played there a bit in the Oklahoma State game. Perhaps Garrett is seeing how she fits there. It might be the least disruptive way for the team in the 3-4 games Sophie is gone.

Good call Geez. Halley seems to be developing into a target player who is hard to knock off the ball and can distribute it to her teammates effectively. Those are skills that have made Sophie a huge asset for the Pilots. If Halley can continue to improve she may well fill the position in Sophie's absence.

Right. She certainly was able to get to the top of the penalty area, hold the ball up, then lay it off to a winger at will in the SMU game.

Great observation about Halley at atacking mid. She has the height, the strength and speed to do well there. We know she can score. Depth at this position looks very good for Pilots. Given the Wisconsin game comments about Ellen Parker, there should be no lack of motivation for thsoe who might fill in for Sophie.
