We had co-players of the week in the ACC this week, through the wisdom of an 18-member media panel, which the media relations folks for ACC Basketball, notably, don’t refer to as being, in any way, “select.”
Players of the Week
Money Williams, G, Boston College/Thijs de Ridder, F, Virginia
- Williams averaged 28.5 points and 4.5 assists in Boston College’s wins over Wagner and UMass.
- Erupted for 35 points, nine rebounds, five assists, and one steal vs. UMass.
- De Ridder averaged team highs in points (18.7 ppg) and rebounds (8.3 rpg) during the three UVA wins over the week.
- Tallied a game-high 24 points in an 89-60 win over Drexel in the season opener; shared the team lead with 20 points and a career-high four steals in the 97-72 win over Northeastern; registered his fourth career double-double with 16 points and 10 rebounds in the 91-72 win over No. 12 Arkansas.
Rookie of the Week
Marcis Ponder, C, Florida State
- Registered a pair of double-doubles while leading Florida State to victories over Florida A&M (113-69) and Troy (91-68).
