Duke’s Seth Curry has been named the ACC Player of the Week
while Maryland’s Charles Mitchell has been selected the conference’s Rookie of
the Week.
Curry scored a career-high 31 points in top-ranked Duke’s
90-77 win over Santa Clara on Saturday at Cameron Indoor Stadium. The
Charlotte, N.C., senior went 12-of-18 from the field, including 4-of-7 from
three-point range, and 3-of-4 from the foul line in recording his first 30+
point game as a Blue Devil. He also added three rebounds and an assist in 36
minutes of action. Curry scored 18 second half points, including 12 points
during a 21-3 Blue Devil run early in the half that turned a four-point deficit
into a 62-48 lead with 9:13 remaining.
Mitchell led Maryland to its 11th straight victory by coming
off the bench and setting season highs with 19 points and 14 rebounds in a
79-50 win over Delaware State Saturday afternoon. The Marietta, Ga., freshman
connected on 8-of-12 field goals, while seven of his 14 boards were on the
offensive end. Mitchell, who ranks first among ACC freshmen with 6.9 rebounds
per game, recorded a double-double for the third time this season.
