Bynes, Davis Earn PBC Weekly Honors

AUGUSTA, Ga. – For their efforts in a pair of victories for the UNCP men's soccer team last week, goalkeeper Horatio Bynes and defender Michael Davis have each earned a Peach Belt Conference weekly honor, the league office announced Tuesday afternoon.

Davis, who earned the conference's Defender of the Week laurel, scored a goal in UNCP's 4-0 win over Chowan on Wednesday and was an integral part of a defense that limited both opponents (USC Aiken) to a combined nine shots. Chowan mustered just one first half shot and finished with three for the game, while USC Aiken took five shots into the halftime break and managed just one the rest of the way out.

Bynes, who earned PBC Goalkeeper of the Week honors for the third time this season, allowed just one goal and tallied a pair of saves in his only action of the week on the road at USC Aiken. The victory for the Braves also marked the Richland native's fifth individual victory of the season and helped lower his overall goals against average down to 1.27.

The recognition marks the final weekly honors of the season for the Peach Belt Conference. The Black and Gold earned eight of the 30 accolades this season, including four goalkeeper of the week awards (three for Bynes, one for Tom Courtney), three Defender of the Week laurels (Andrew Brown, Brendan Cook, Davis) and one Offensive Player of the Week honor (Carlos Cipriano).
