Here is the second half of our Top 20 2012 girls from the Rocky Mountains/Southwest region, which is every bit as impressive as the first

For Real Colorado, Stella Norman is a versatile central midfielder who can play almost anywhere on offense or defense. She is a very energetic player who tackles well and strikes a good ball. She is very dangerous taking free kicks.

Janine Beckie is a winger with an attacking mentality. She's got all the physical tools - speed, agility, the ability to strike a good ball - but she's also a smart player who excels in the tactical aspects of the game.

Jayln Yates is a goalkeeper with good size, athleticism and agility who can block shots as well as anyone in her age group. She is smart and quick distributing the ball out of the back.

Tess Rebich is a goalkeeper for Sereno SC who plays much bigger than her size. She is a great shot-stopper and excels snagging balls out of the air. 

Sereno's Katie Boyle is one of the most athletic and versatile players in her age group. When her team needs a goal, she can play up top and score.  When her team needs a stop, she can play anywhere in the defense. She could improve her technical skills, but her athleticism makes her hard to ignore. 

Sydney Tomlinson is an extremely technical player who serves as the focal point of Sereno's offense. She is the rare player who can play a clean final ball to her teammates or dribble and score herself. She's a good athlete and excels at set pieces. 

Maddy Bradshaw is a tough, athletic outside back who can get forward and attack in a hurry. She is a gritty defender, but she is most dangerous when serving crosses into the box from the wing. 

Alexis Selman of Utah Avalanche is a game-changing attacking midfielder. She has great vision and distribution skills and an excellent first touch. She has an accurate and powerful right leg, and she’s most dangerous lurking by herself outside the penalty box. She always makes an impact on the game, and is a natural leader.

Joanna Madagascas of La Roca Premier is an athletic central midfielder with a great work rate and good vision in the middle of the field. She’s never the biggest player on the field, but she is very strong in the air.

Brecken Holbrook is a center back who is good in the air and reads the game intelligently. She could improve her patience distributing the ball, but overall she is a very strong presence in the middle of La Roca’s defense.
