Women’s Team of the Week: November 17
The SEC is the last conference standing.
With the Big 12 wrapped up its regular season with no conference tournament, the ACC finished its conference tournament this past weekend.
That leaves the SEC as the final side in action, with the quarterfinals of the conference tournament beginning on November 17.
Florida State captured the ACC tournament title on Sunday, holding off North Carolina for a 3-2 win. The latest Player of the Week nod goes to Clara Robbins, as she fired home a pair of goals to put the Seminoles up early, before they hang on to the lead.
Player of the Week: Clara Robbins, Florida State
