Jason Plumhoff

What Coaches Say: “I really like him. He plays wide left but is right-footed, and comes in like a true winger. He likes to go 1v1 and set people up. He can score from there and get assists from out wide. I like him, and there aren't a lot of true wingers in this class ... I rate the kid. I think he's good ... Finds a way to score. Scores every year. Everyone knows about him and he still scores. Still scores 7-10 goals for all four years and he's a marked man every time he plays ... They played him in two places as a left-sided midfielder, withdrawn striker and also up top as a high striker ... In midfield, he's more dangerous because he's getting the ball more. When they put him up top they're more of a launching team and he didn't reach as much with them just launching it ... In 90 minutes he touches the ball one time and he scores ... We struggle to defend him because good pace and good movement off the ball. Only major, major threat on the field ... As an inverted winger he was dangerous on the left side ... Up top he could be good if someone can bring down the ball ... He is most dangerous in the channels and he can finish very well clinical ... He's got great quickness ... Faster with the ball ... He has acceleration. He has gears ... He stops you and starts you and as a defender those are the toughest to mark ... He's two-footed ... Serves a quality re-start ... Goes to find the game ... Grew up in Bayern youth system. His father worked for government and stationed in Germany and they settled in Germany. When Jason turns 15 his dad got stationed in Maryland ... He has ability to win games ... He has core strength which gives him ability to hit a great driven shot ... PDL at Ocean City and Reading ... And he was Reading leading scorer and he was on PDL national team.
