Syracuse women's basketball player wins ACC honor again

Syracuse, N.Y. -- For the second time this season, Syracuse redshirt freshman Maeva Djaldi-Tabdi is the Atlantic Coast Conference rookie of the week for women's basketball.

Djaldi-Tabdi helped the then-ranked No. 12 Orange to a 1-1 week, which included a 43-point victory over Towson on Sunday.

The Paris native averaged 12.5 points and five rebounds during the two-game stretch. She had a career-high five blocks in a 72-68 loss at No. 20 Minnesota as part of the ACC/B1G Challenge on Thursday night.

She was 7-for-13 from the field (.538) against Towson scoring 15 points as Syracuse's only player to score double figures off the bench.
