MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Memphis freshman Dedric Lawson has been named the American Athletic Conference Rookie of the Week for the fourth time this season, as Shaq Lawson was named to the AAC Honor Roll.
The award, Lawson's fourth of the season, puts him one away from tying the AAC record for most Rookie of the Week honors in a season, currently held by Chris Perry of USF. With his four, he has moved into a four-way tie for second-most such honors, joining Daniel Hamilton (UConn), B.J. Tyson (East Carolina), and Austin Nichols.
