Re: Northwestern 2021
I agree, she has a hard time keeping up in the ACC. Also hard for someone that tall to win a groundball scrum. Duke has very good circle players as well, but Jenner herself is pretty easy to neutralize by just putting it into space.watcherinthewoods wrote: ↑Thu May 20, 2021 9:32 pm Are you guys NUTS?!?!

Re: Northwestern 2021
Maddie Jenner has 25 goals. I’ve seen her go to cage and score plenty of times—“lead feet” and all. She might not have the speed to chase down a draw, but she’s got plenty enough to drive and score.watcherinthewoods wrote: ↑Thu May 20, 2021 9:32 pm Are you guys NUTS?!?! Her feet are lead.

Re: Northwestern 2021
As a former DI player, I can tell you, in 2021, this is a SPEED game. Bottom line: See Gilbert, Lauren.
Re: Northwestern 2021
Maddie Jenner’s got enough speed to score 25 goals. Huge number of draws to her credit—180. Her supposed lead feet aren’t preventing her from putting up big numbers on the draw and a decent number of goals scored.watcherinthewoods wrote: ↑Thu May 20, 2021 9:59 pm As a former DI player, I can tell you, in 2021, this is a SPEED game.

Pick up. You take Jenner. I’ve got Gilbert. Or swart. Or Mastrioani. Game on.
Re: Northwestern 2021
I was prompted to respond by your original lead feet remark—not on whether speed is important or if I would take Lauren Gilbert over Maddie Jenner in a pick up game.

Former D1, eh? Women’s D1 or men’s D1?
