PHOTO: Warrior Soccer Players Of the Week

September 30, 2015

SAKURA RESTAURANT would like to congratulate Allee Purcell for being named Wakefield Memorial High School Varsity Girls' Soccer Player of the Week. Allee is a sophomore who is in her first year on varsity. Due to a number of injuries to the defensive line of the team, Allee was called on to move from an outside offensive position to a center-defender. While Allee had been serving as the starting left-midfielder, she was chosen to make this move to the back-line for the Wilmington and Melrose games. Her speed, endurance, tackling skills, strong clears, and long balls made her the clear choice. She never demonstrated reluctance to help her team where we needed it most, even though that meant playing a position completely new to her. Being a young player, she continues to accelerate her communication with her teammates around her. In these two most recent games, Allee showed the perseverance necessary to be a defender by never giving up on a play and always racing to win the ball back from her opponent. Her kicks off dead balls are lethal. She was a strong force in the backfield last week, helping her team to better find a groove offensively. — SAKURA RESTAURANT would like to congratulate Allee Purcell for being named Wakefield Memorial High School Varsity Girls' Soccer Player of the Week.
