Duke lands two on All-ACC teams

Duke sophomore center Kyle Filipowski was named to the All-ACC first-team, with teammate Jeremy Roach landing on the third-team and Jared McCain earning honorable mention.

The league announced the teams and individual awards on Monday afternoon.

Filipowski was the league’s rookie of the year last season and was a second-team selection. He’s averaging 16.7 points, 8.0 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.6 blocks per game. He’s the seventh Blue Devil in the last 50 years to score more than 1,000 points in his first two seasons.

Roach is third in the ACC in assist-to-turnover ratio (2.51) and is scoring 14.3 points per game. He’s shooting 48.4% from the field, 44.2% on 3-pointers, and 85.7% on free throws.

McCain averaged 7.6 points in Duke’s first eight games, during which the Blue Devils were 5-3. Since then, he’s scoring 15.7 points per game, the second-best on the team.

McCain finished runner-up to Notre Dame’s Markus Burton for ACC rookie of the year, garnering 20 of 75 votes (Burton had 46 votes). Rounding up McCain’s honors, he was on the All-Rookie team.

Filipowski was also runner-up in a category, player of the year — though, he had three votes and North Carolina’s RJ Davis won it with 68 votes.

Duke’s Caleb Foster also got one vote for ACC rookie of the year, and three votes for ACC sixth man of the year (won by Ishmael Leggett of Pittsburgh).

Jon Scheyer received two votes for ACC coach of the year.
