THE FLATS – Georgia Tech’s
Moses Wright was named the Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Week Monday in voting by a panel of 15 members of the media. It is the second time Wright has received the honor this season, having done so in December. It is the third time a Tech player has been so honored this season; Jose Alvarado was named in early January.
The 6-9 senior forward posted double-doubles in both Tech games last week as Tech captured a 16-point road win over No. 16 Virginia Tech, Tech’s fourth win over a top-25 team this season, and a come-from-behind home win over Syracuse to go three games over .500 in ACC play for the first time since March 3, 1996. Wright’s 57 points were the second-most in back-to-back games by an ACC player this season.
