How to stop rushing/charging player who runs at full speed towards the net?

Recently my daughter’s team has played a couple of teams which use an aggressive attack strategy. Once they get possession it is passed to a solid player who runs in a straight line towards the net a full speed, usually forcing the defenders to virtually get out of her way! There is no intention to pass, just be a “tank” and plough through the defenders! What is the best way to defend against this type of an aggressive attack?
