GREENSBORO, N.C. – For the second time this season, Duke University graduate Haley Gorecki has been tabbed the ACC Player of the Week on Monday following a vote of the Blue Ribbon Panel.
A native of Palatine, Ill., Gorecki closed the regular season with three games on the road in seven days, while averaging 20.0 points, 5.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 2.7 steals. She helped lead Duke to a, 70-65, upset victory at eighth-ranked NC State with 24 points, five assists, four rebounds, two steals and one block in 40 minutes, while having only one turnover. The 6-0 guard scored Duke's final five points of the contest to seal the victory for the Blue Devils.
Gorecki closed the regular season with another outstanding all-around game at North Carolina with 23 points, nine rebounds, five assists and three steals as Duke secured the No. 3 seed in the ACC Tournament with a 73-54 victory. She hit 8-of-14 field goals and drained four treys in 39 minutes. Gorecki has now faced UNC five times over her career and totaled 20 or more points in four of those games.
She added 13 points, five assists, three steals and two rebounds on the road at Virginia Tech in a 70-56 loss.
During the week, Gorecki became the sixth Blue Devil to reach 500 points in back-to-back seasons. Gorecki was last named ACC Player of the Week on Nov. 25.
The Blue Devils (18-11) will open the ACC Tournament Friday, March 6 at 8 p.m., against either Boston College, Miami or Clemson. The contest will be aired live on RSN-TV and played at the Greensboro Coliseum in Greensboro, N.C.
