Speedy Purce turning heads with Freestate, U.S. U-17 Women, earns Korrio Player to Watch award

Margaret “Midge” Purce earned her nickname as an undersized Under-8 player many years ago, and she remains a petite presence compared to her taller teammates on Freestate Soccer Alliance’s U-16 ECNL squad and the U.S. Under-17 Women’s National Team. Watch her play, however, and it rapidly becomes clear that her particular physical gift is one more precious than mere height: blistering speed, which, when matched with her slick ball skills and aggressive mentality, makes her one of the most dangerous strikers in the nation – and a deserving Korrio Player to Watch nominee for May.
