Melissa Heintz Bio

Pensky's Take
"Melissa appears to have fully recovered from her compartment syndrome surgery - which is great news for our team. Her speed is special, and knowing that we can count on that this season will be a tremendous plus. Melissa has been incredibly diligent in her efforts to prepare for her fianl collegiate season."

On Heintz: Speedy midfielder with great endurance who likes to get up and down the field ... good crosser of the ball ... will primarily play wide midfield, but could also be used at forward ... will be an impact player now that she is fully recovered from her compartment syndrome surgery.
