Thursday, Sept. 19, 2002 | 9:36 a.m.

High School: Cimarron-Memorial ('01)

Where she is now: Arizona

Class: Sophomore

Sport: Soccer

Currently: After starring as a midfielder and forward for the Wildcats in 2001, Bailey has moved back to join the team's defense this season. The second-year player has helped 3-1-1 Arizona post three shutouts in its first five games. Last season, Bailey finished second on her squad with 17 points (six goals, five assists), starting all 18 contests for the Pac-10 school.

Looking back: One of Nevada's all-time great goal scorers, Bailey found the net 70 times over her final two seasons with the Spartans to lead all Southern Nevada players. She earned four varsity letters, captained Cimarron's 2000 Clark County championship squad and was named MVP of the 1999 Norway Cup in Oslo after helping the Las Vegas Tabagators capture the overall title.
