My old college teammate is the coach for this team, that was pretty strange to see on t.v.

Kadeisha Buchanan is a good player, but she is lucky to play a position where being athletic will mostly get you by. Of the two word class players Canada has produced (Sincy, and Buchanan is almost there) being bigger, stronger and faster has a lot to do with it. Of course they posses skill, but I'm not holding my breath for players like the midfielders from France in the World Cup showing up in the Canadian senior team anytime soon. I think the U.S.A showed in the World Cup that speed and size along with skill is still important in the woman's game as opposed to the mens game.

It's a great time to be a high level girls soccer player with NCAA scholarships galore for Canadian girls...
