Syracuse Basketball: Trevor Cooney Named ACC Player Of The Week & Greatest Person Ever

Trevor Cooney had a very good game on Friday. The redshirt sophomore scored 27 points and, according to Jim Boeheim, carried the Syracuse Orange to victory over the Cornell Big Red. For his efforts, Cooney has been rewarded with the first ACC Player of the Week nod of the 2013-2014 season.

An ACC media panel voted Cooney the Player of the Week after he scored a game-high and career-best 27 points to help the seventh-ranked Orange defeat Cornell, 82-60 in last Friday’s season opener. The Wilmington, Del., native shot 10-of-12 from the field, including 7-of-8 from 3-point range, and had two assists, three rebounds and four steals in 28 minutes of play. His seven 3-pointers and 4 steals also represented career-high efforts.

A reminder...

If you said something mean about Trevor Cooney last year, you have to sit this season out. Sorry.
