"Tori is a talented and athletic midfielder with excellent vision and the ability to drive a ball 45 yards to a target during the run of play. There aren't a lot of players like Tori in today's game. What separates Tori is the intangibles - things like determination and courage and the willingness to physically batter opposing players. Her work rate is off the charts. Tori is a one-woman army - a fearless ball-winner who plays with aggression and utter disregard for personal safety. She's a true midfield enforcer which is an uncommon and valuable commodity in the women's game. Her physical presence will add a new dimension to our midfield and make it very difficult for opponents to play-make in the middle third." -Georgia Head Coach Steve Holeman "Tori is a dynamic and versatile player who can play anywhere on the field. She is a strong tackler of the ball, yet possesses an advanced soccer acumen making her a good passer and penetrating dribbler. She is a strong leader on and off the field, but she is best known for being a fierce competitor. It will be exciting to see her playing at the next level for the Bulldogs." -Coach Dido, SoCal Blues |
