Florida Atlantic University's women's soccer team continued on its record setting year as defender Krista Fine was named to the Soccer Buzz Elite Team of the Week for the week of October 28. Fine, who was named the Atlantic Sun Defensive Player-of-the-Week on Monday, becomes the first athlete to be named to the Soccer Buzz team in program history.

Fine, a junior from Delray Beach, FL., led a Lady Owl defense that has allowed only one goal in its last seven games, including a program record six straight shutouts (all A-Sun rivals). Fine, primarily used to defend an opposing teams top scorer, held two of the A-Sun's top scorers to one shot and no goals or assists in the 1-0 win over then conference leader Jacksonville University. Fine also held Jacksonville State University's top scorer to one shot with no points in the 3-0 win. The wins catapulted FAU (13-4, 9-1) to a tie for first place in the A-Sun with one game remaining.

FAU plays its final regular-season game on Saturday, November 2, against A-Sun foe Gardner Webb in Boiling Springs, NC., at noon.
