Schaub named ACC Player of the Week
Virginia quarterback Matt Schaub was selected as the Atlantic Coast Conference football Player of the Week, conference officials announced Monday. Schaub's performance during the Cavaliers' 38-34 come-from-behind victory at Wake Forest, where he passed for 312 yards while completing 22 of 27 passes for three touchdowns, earned him this honor. This season, the junior from West Chester, Pa., has completed 88 of his 123 passes with 15 touchdowns. Schaub ranks third nationally in passing efficiency.
Other ACC Players of the Week are Georgia Tech sophomore Kyle Wallace (offensive line), Florida State senior Alonzo Jackson (defensive line), Duke junior Terrell Smith (defensive back), N.C. State sophomore Lamont Reid (specialist) and Georgia Tech freshman Ajenavi Eziemefe (rookie).
