Tray Woodall Wins Big East Player Of The Week

Pitt's Tray Woodall has been named the Big East Player Of The Week:

Tray Woodall is named Big East Player of the Week after averaging 26.5 points, 4.0 assists, 5.0 rebounds and shooting 62.5% from field.

Woodall has been a big part of Pitt's resurgence in the last few games. Nasir Robinson has been a key part of that as well, but it's hard not to notice that the Panthers are 4-1 since Woodall returned from injury. He struggled in his return against Louisville, and he had only four points (with 10 assists) in their win over Georgetown, but he had 17 points and nine assists against Providence, 24 points against West Virginia, and 29 against Villanova. The Panthers started Big East play with seven straight losses, including the one against Louisville, but they now look poised to make a run at an NCAA Tournament berth, and Woodall is a key reason why.
