Leighton does a great job of catching her opponents by surprise. She will act like she is out of the play and then shoot the gaps in the defense with an explosive first step to get to the cage and bury it. She has great instincts and is always able to find the ball, whether it’s off the draw or in the middle of 8 meter when she is on defense - that ball is in her stick before anyone else even recognizes where it went. I would love to see her continue to develop her fundamental defensive skills and continue to be a dynamic dodger.
