Northeast Summer: Sunday Standouts Part 1

The Northeast Summer Tournament by Premier 37 Events took place on June 13-14 in Albany, N.Y. Players from the Classes of 2027-2034 showcased their talents at three different venues. The 2030s-2034s played on June 13, while the 2027s-2029s each had their own venue on June 14.   Here are the standouts:    Koch plays very fundamental defense and can press far out to defend. Koch is a good clearing defender who runs very hard and wants to get the ball to the offense. Offensive players, better watch out for her over-the-head checks.     Fitzgerald's clears were spot on early in the morning at the Northeast Summer Showcase. She had a couple of really good saves. Fitzgerald made stops in close and from range.     Kealty stands at 5'9” and is a left-handed midfielder for Mass Elite. She can explode downhill and rip the ball. On another possession, she had a nice catch inside and got off a quick shot. Kealty also takes the draw. Long term, she has a high upside.     Bombard is a great communicator in goal. She talks all the time, and you can hear her all over the field. The Monster Elite goalie made incredible saves vs Mass Elite. She intercepts passes, saves shots with her body, and makes great reads.     Holden stood tall in goal vs Prime Time. She is extremely athletic. The Laxachusetts goalie literally makes the wildest saves. All the college coaches on the sidelines know who Murphy Holden is. This is a 4-year college starter, program-changing goalie.     Cargiuolo flies around on defense. Super aggressive 1v1 defender. On the clear, she can get it up and out. She matched up on some tough matchups vs Prime Time and held her own.     Carcaterra is a great finisher down low. She throws quick and aggressive fakes with her head and stick when finishing the ball. Her feeds are crazy quick. Carcaterra's quick stick finishes are elite. Just ask the D1 coaches sitting next to me, they like what they saw from the No. 1 player in the Class of 2028.     Gilbart is patient when she feeds the ball, and then threads the needle. Her passes are so pinpoint accurate, it's incredible. If a college coaching staff can pair up Gilbart and Cacaterra on the same team, they will have something special. They complement each other's games so well. Keep them together, and you will win.     No. 22 in Orange can flat-out snipe the ball. Cummings is a lefty attacker out of Niskayuna (N.Y.) who has a rocket of a shot that she locates really well. Her vision is great. On one offensive possession, she fed the ball from up top to the backside pipe. Keep an eye on Cummings this summer.
