>>Some of them have been able to rely on their speed, more than their foot skills to find success in the attacking third.<<

In RIIIPL-East, what you'll find is that the central and outside defenders are typically as fast as the "burners." It is certainly the case that against weak competition [e.g., high school, classic, and in some cases challenge league] that speed [or a big leg, or particularly weak teams, etc.] can overcome ball skills and the like. That's why I included only names who had success in RIIIPL-East and major tournaments. I'm not sure who on the list doesn't have the ball skills you want. Jacqueline Hines is probably the fastest on that list -- and her ball skills were impressive. Same goes for speedsters like Bolt, Jordan, etc. Heck -- as fast as Bolt is -- her ball skills were more impressive in the last college game in which I saw her play.
