Hunter Uriarte is a skilled ball handler with a nose for the ball who can score with either foot. This week, he took the ball from right to left, dribbling around defenders all the while. As he came near the left corner, just before going out of bounds he blasted a shot into the side of net on a fly with his off foot. His reaction was almost embarrassed. He anticipates and plays with great vision and awareness. He is a joy to watch having so much fun on the field.
After one play, the player he passed to scored and came over to him and said sorry for not passing the ball back, he smiled joyfully and said "Dude, we are on the same team, it's Great!". And he gave him a high five.
Many times he has noticed a teammate struggling and offered encouragement, and he sticks up for his teammates when things are not going well. On the sidelines he cheers loudly a positivity for his teammates and pays attention to the action. And he plays with infectious smile and enthusiasm that inspires his teammates and parents from both sides of the lines.
