BOULDER – The peak of celebrity is when a person has hit one-name status. Cher. Madonna. Adele. Beyoncé. For one Colorado soccer player, who has three names, it's just Roo that is catching on.
CU midfielder Roo Yarnell-Williams has exploded on the scene this fall for Danny Sanchez and the Buffaloes. The freshman, whose given game is Aurora, has scored three goals in her first six collegiate games and is currently second on the team with six points.
...
Colorado fans could be witnessing the rise of another star, while in the same season watching another's successful career wind down. Senior Taylor Kornieck, who has made a compelling case to be called one of the best in CU soccer history, had a similar start to her freshman season. Kornieck also had three goals in her first six games. She finished the 2016 season second on the team with 26 points (11 G, 4 A).
Having the opportunity to play one season with Kornieck is not something that has gone unnoticed from Yarnell-Williams, picking up bits and pieces from the seasoned veteran.
"I've learned to listen better," Yarnell-Williams explained. "I've learned to listen and not get in your head, not think that you're right all the time and accept information if somebody tells you what you need to do and grow from it."
Yarnell-Williams and the No. 24 Buffs head to Tallahassee, Fla., on Thursday for the team's first road-test. Colorado will take on defending national champion Florida State at 5 p.m. MT on the ACC Network.
