Quite literally changed my life for the better. Was very direct and forward about expectations and whether or not you were meeting them to your ability. Could be intense in her directness, but as long as you had the mentality that she was trying to make you better, you made the adjustment and moved on. Never held a grudge. Does not deal well with people who make excuses for lack of effort and lack of commitment. Wants to win, but also wants to support her players as people.

The game has evolved past her abilities. Missy is a very poor communicator, never provide feedback on performance. Her only success has been with players that were here when she took over. She doesn’t like girls that play the game and can pass, she only appreciates the girl that drives down the middle and scores 3 goals, regardless that the same girl turns the ball over 8-10 times in the process which other team converts to goals. Assistant coaches all quit within 1-2 years…says a lot about the head coach.

Missy is a great person and super easy to talk to but a little bit too much of an old school mentality with how much the game has evolved over the years.
