Tyler Herro Named SEC Freshman Of The Week For Third Time

Herro is likely in the running for SEC Freshman of the Year at this point.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – After dominating the Southeastern Conference weekly awards this season, the Kentucky men’s basketball team fittingly took home one of the last honors of the 2018-19 year with Tyler Herro winning SEC Freshman of the Week on Monday.

Herro was tabbed the best freshman in the league last week for a team-high-tying third time this season after leading UK to victories at Ole Miss and at home vs. Florida, two teams fighting for an at-large NCAA Tournament berth.
