Tech's Brantley and Pyles Again Chosen Women's Soccer Players of the Week

Florida Tech's Teresa Brantley and Melissa Pyles have been honored as Sunshine State Conference Women's Soccer Players of the Week for the period ending October 25.

OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK --  Florida Tech senior F Teresa Brantley (Satellite Beach, Fla.) tallied the golden goal in the 108th minute to lift the No. 17 Panthers to a 1-0 win over Saint Leo.  She followed the performance by assisting on a goal in Tech’s 3-0 conference victory over Tampa.  The win keeps the Panthers in the hunt for the regular-season title heading into this week’s final matches.
