Jimmy Chaudoin analyses the play of Valeria and Manuela Cardenas for Molly Brown at the Pro Champs 2022 tournament held before USAU Nationals, in particular their impact on the offensive flow. Valeria’s flick huck and backhand give-go threats make her impossible to shut down, whilst Manuela’s athletic bids and ability to get separation in small spaces is unmatched. Molly Brown’s method for fielding pulls sees Valeria give-go aggressively downfield, often penetrating the defence.
