Coach Falor's Comments

"We love her ability to be creative as a targeting forward. She's improved her ability to hold the ball under pressure and like all good forwards is driven to create shots around the box. She gives our attack an element of deception and has become adept at finishing half chances. Sylvia is often a big part of how we create goal-scoring chances in transition."
