Lily Smith Lily Smith 5'5" | Defense/Midfield | Right Hand Emmaus | 2028 PA was a name I repeatedly noted on Sunday afternoon. A two-way midfielder from Macungie, Pennsylvania, Smith put on a clinic in front of college coaches in attendance and is a player with rising stock ahead of the September 1 recruiting opening for the class of 2028.

An initiator on the offensive end, Smith’s footwork is unpredictable up top, and she is poised going either way. In one instance, she started up top, began going left, saw the help-side defender begin to slide, spun back right, and fired a laser on the run into the top-left corner after creating just enough separation on the shoulder.

Smith also had a particularly strong weekend on the defensive end. She impressed with her ability to lock down an X attacker — she does not overcommit or throw unnecessary checks when her assignment is not a threat to score. She uses her speed to stay connected and checks when they become a threat at the GLE.
