Coach Gallimore on Zevenbergen:
"Hillary is an extremely skillful player and can penetrate successfully by passing or dribbling. She has good deception with the ball and her stature makes her difficult to mark, in and around the goal. She's very capable of scoring with either foot and we are looking for her to be a threat whether coming out of the midfield or playing up front."
