Syracuse guard Trevor Cooney was named Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Week on Monday after his career-best 27-point performance against Cornell on Friday.

Cooney shot 7-of-8 from 3-point range to spur the Orange back from a 14-point first-half deficit to an 82-60 win over the Big Red.

“He bailed us out when we really needed him in the first half, when we really had nothing,” SU head coach Jim Boeheim said after the game.

Cooney added a team-high four steals, including one that resulted in an emphatic two-handed dunk, in 28 minutes. His previous career high in scoring was 15 points in a win against Monmouth on Dec. 8, 2012.
