CHARLOTTE, N.C. (theACC.com) – Georgia Tech's Mallorie Black was named the Atlantic Coast Conference Softball Player of the Week while NC State's Rylee Wyman was tabbed Pitcher of the Week following the second week of action.

The ACC softball weekly awards are voted on by a panel from both the schools and the conference office. 

Black led the Yellow Jackets through a tough weekend against No. 9 Stanford, No. 12 LSU, No. 22 Northwestern and Minnesota (RV) with a .727 batting average, .786 on-base percentage and a 1.182 slugging percentage. The Cumming, Georgia, native went 8-for-11 at the Clearwater Invitational with six runs scored, two doubles, a home run, four RBI, two walks and a hit-by-pitch.

Wyman recorded 19 strikeouts with a 0.87 ERA in NC State's weekend against North Dakota State, UConn, Elon and Campbell. The Gardnerville, Nevada, native notched a career-high 11 strikeouts against UConn - including five consecutive batters - becoming the first member of the Wolfpack since 2022 to record more than 10 strikeouts in a game. The sophomore finished the weekend with three wins, a save, and one complete game after pitching 16.1 innings. She gave up only three runs and one walk in NC State's five-game weekend.

Three ACC teams are ranked in the latest USA Today/NFCA Top 25 poll with three in the top 15 led by Duke at No. 8, Clemson at No. 9 and Florida State at No. 12.
