UNC senior attacker Chris Gray was recognized Tuesday as the ACC Men’s Lacrosse Offensive Player of the Week, his second consecutive week winning the award.

Gray tallied four goals and three assists in the Tar Heels’ 18-7 win over Jacksonville on Saturday. He tallied seven points in each of UNC’s first two games, leading the team in scoring by a wide margin.

This represents the fourth career ACC Player of the Week award for Gray, who transferred to UNC from Boston University prior to the beginning of the shortened 2020 season.
