the reasoning behind why i said i didnt think she needed to be on here is she might have had a great season but it goes back to the level of competition she plays at. nothing against her, shes a good player, but when i saw her play better competition she was easily shut down and was invisible. again this is nothing against tessa or ocs at all

Now those are solid comments. Excellent response, thanks.

But in her defense (I've only seen OCS play once early in the season during a tournament and certainly don't remember individual players from that long ago) a player is sometimes only as good as their supporting cast. If a team doesn't have a balanced attack an excellent player can get shut down when the opponent concentrates on that player and manages to loosen up on the other team mates. If the team mates don't step up to take the pressure off, any one can get shut down.

true that too. but when she got the ball she did little with it except kick it down the line when she was the forward. nothing against her i just dont think her competition is that great. her district is fairly week and teams around the area.

This thread is solely opinion and in my opinion Tessa is one of the better players I have seen. Too be honest it is too hard to pick just one player who is the best because there is a lot of talent in D III. You may not see the same thing I do but as a coach I thought she had great skills and she stood out on her team. She was a threat on the field and as the opposing coach the kind of threat you worry about. If she were at my school she would be a starter and her talent would be welcomed. Just my opinion.

im wasnt saying she didnt have talent and that she wouldnt start on most teams. she has talent and is a great player. but when i think of best players in a division i think of a player that can change games and doesnt go invisible in games. i havent seen every single player in DIII play so i cant say if she is one of the best or not. but i just thought i would give my opinion from when i saw her play against better competition. i know in the guys threads there was a player with 50 goals and peoples arguements for him making all state were that he played very poor competition. maybe im just making my case here
