University
of Florida freshman guard Bradley Beal (St. Louis, Mo.) has been named
the SEC Freshman of the Week for the sixth time this season, the Conference

Beal,
who takes home the Gators’ eight conference honor of the season, earned the
accolade after an impressive showing in a pair of SEC road wins over Alabama
and Arkansas where he averaged 17.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, three assists, two
blocks and two steals. Beal scored 14 points and added a team-best eight
rebounds in a victory at Alabama. He followed up his strong performance against
the Crimson Tide with a 21-point and nine rebound outing at Arkansas, his
fourth 20-point game of the season.
