New Warrior: Emily Relles

Emily Relles brings a unique set of skills up Highway 99 from Souther California. The outside defender is an impressive blend of speed, offensive skill, and defensive ability. She primarily plays left back for her Valley United team and legendary club coach Hugh Donald. But she is equally confident on either side of the field. She has also been know to step up to the forward line in high school soccer when a goal is needed.

What coach Gabriel Bolton is saying about Emily:

"Emily is the complete package as a player. She is a perfect fit at outside defender for our program because we like to get our wing backs into the attack. Emily has the speed to go forward as well as the skill to take players on and cross balls into the box with both feet. As an added bonus Emily plays left back which in my experience is one of the most difficult positions to play."
