Oct. 27, 2004

MACON, Ga. - UCF junior midfielder Courtney Baines and freshman keeper Corinne Razem were named the Atlantic Sun Women's Soccer Players-of-the-Week by the league office on Monday afternoon. Baines led the Golden Knights to a pair of wins on the week while Razem returned from injury and posted a perfect week in goal for the Bulldogs.

Courtney Baines, from Indialantic, Fla., was named A-Sun Offensive Player-of-the-Week for the first time in her career after tallying four assists in two matches. Baines earned her first assist on the game-winning goal in a 2-1 win over Miami, and completed the week with three assists in a 5-0 win over A-Sun foe Troy. Baines assisted on both game-winning goals on the week and increased her team best assist total to eight (3rd in A-Sun). Baines is tied for fourth on the team with 16 points and has started all 18 matches for UCF.

Corinne Razem, a freshman from Grand Island, N.Y., earned her first A-Sun Defensive Player-of-the-Week honor of her career. Razem posted two shutouts in her return to the starting lineup, not allowing a single goal in 220 minutes of work to help GWU to a pair of scoreless ties against Jacksonville and Stetson. Razem returned from injury to tally 15 saves in two overtime matches to help Gardner-Webb secure a berth in its second straight A-Sun Championship field. Razem raised her season shutout total to four on the season and lowered her goals against average to 0.78 in 808:35 minutes of action in net.

UCF (14-3-1, 8-2) returns to play for its final regular season match on Thursday when the Golden Knights travel to Tallahassee to take on Florida State. Gardner-Webb will host league-leading Campbell on Thursday in the team's final regular season match. Both teams will participate in the upcoming 2004 A-Sun Women's Soccer Championship on November 4-6 in Buies Creek, N.C.
