Schofield Repeats as SEC Co-Player of the Week

For the second consecutive week, Tennessee's Admiral Schofield has been named the SEC Co-Player of the Week by the conference office.

Tennessee would not have captured the 2018 SEC Championship or ran its win streak to a league-best four games entering this week's SEC Tournament without Schofield's "alpha" efforts last week. The junior wing averaged 23.5 points and 5.0 rebounds while delivering from the field (17-34, .500) and the free-throw line (11-13, .846) in victories over Mississippi State and Georgia.

Schofield has led the 16th-ranked and NCAA Tournament-bound Volunteers in scoring for each of their last three games, and he has been a blatantly unstoppable force late in those contests. In Tennessee's two wins last week, the Zion, Illinois, native averaged 12 points after halftime.

His pair of 20-point performances last week give him five such efforts this season and six for his career.

In SEC play this season, the All-SEC candidate ranked among the top 10 in total rebounding (7th, 6.7 rpg), defensive rebounding (7th, 4.8 drpg) and field-goal percentage (7th, .469).
