CHICAGO (Tuesday, August 27, 2002) - U.S. Soccer referee Kari Seitz was honored on Aug. 23 as the 2002 WUSA Referee of the Year at the second annual Founders Awards Banquet in Atlanta. Because of her work commitment as an official at the inaugural FIFA Under-19 Women's World Championship, Seitz was unable to attend the awards ceremony. In her absence, Esse Baharmast, U.S. Soccer's Director of Advanced and International Referee Development, read an acceptance speech on her behalf.
