GREENSBORO, N.C. – Following his first-ever double-double, Virginia Tech men's basketball's Landers Nolley II has been named ACC Freshman of the Week, as announced by the league office on Monday.
The redshirt freshman led the Hokies (10-3) over Maryland Eastern Shore (1-14) on Sunday, delivering 18 points, 10 rebounds and three assists. Nolley turned in a plus-minus of +44 in the 92-37 victory Sunday evening.
The 55-point margin of victory marked Tech's biggest win since 2011. Nolley had zero turnovers and the Hokies finished with just two, tying a school record set in 2007 versus Wake Forest.
With the honor, it marks Nolley's fourth time earning the award this season, which improves upon his already set school record since Tech joined the ACC in 2004-05.
Tech will be back in action on Saturday when it hits the road to Charlottesville, taking on in-state rival No. 19/19 Virginia (10-2) in the Commonwealth Clash presented by Virginia529.
