DURHAM — For the second time this season, Duke women's basketball rookie Shayeann Day-Wilson has been named ACC Freshman of the Week, as announced by the league office on Monday. Â
A native of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Day-Wilson helped lead Duke to ACC victories at Miami and at home against Virginia this week to move the Blue Devils to 13-4 overall and 4-3 in the ACC. Â
She averaged 12.0 points, 5.0 assists, 2.0 rebounds and 1.5 steals on the week, while hitting 10-of-12 field goals. Day-Wilson continues to lead all true freshman in the ACC in scoring (12.0) and assists (3.5). Â
On the road at Miami, Day-Wilson collected 11 points, a career-high seven assists and pulled down three rebounds. The 5-5 point guard hit 4-of-8 field goals. Â
Day-Wilson closed the week against Virginia on Sunday with a team-high 13 points, three assists, a career-high three steals and one rebound. She also hit 6-of-12 field goals. Â
The rookie has started each of the last four games since junior Celeste Taylor was injured. Day-Wilson had to step up even more on Sunday with starter Miela Goodchild out as well. Over the last four contests, Day-Wilson has averaged 12.0 points, 4.5 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 0.8 steals. Â
Taylor Soule of Boston College was selected ACC Player of the Week.
Duke will next host North Carolina on Thursday, Jan. 27 at 7 p.m., live on ACC Network Extra. Â
