Virginia Player of the Week – Week 11: Liam Harrington
As conference play wrapped up last week, Liam Harrington, a class of 2017 point guard out of Herndon High School, played a huge part for his team. After recording a triple-double, 21 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists in a convincing 102-82 win vs. Centreville, he proceeded to hit the game-winning 3 at the buzzer to beat Robinson in overtime.
The 6-foot-3 lead guard is third on the team in scoring, averaging just over 15 points per game. He plays with a very high motor and is also excellent distributor of the ball. Prior to last night’s loss vs. Westfield in the conference semis, Liam had scored double-figures in each of the last 13 games.
As a result of his strong play last week, Liam earned a nomination among four other players for Week 11 Buffalo Wild Wild Wings Virginia Player of the Week. Upon the closing of the poll this afternoon, it was determined that he was the winner, with nearly 50% of the total votes submitted in his favor.
