Quinzani Completing Duke Scoring Trio
Offensive Player Of The Week: Max Quinzani (Duke)
There were very little questions about the Duke attack tandem of Matt Danowski and Zack Greer heading into the season. The third piece of the puzzle was sophomore Max Quinzani, who certainly brought a ton of credentials from high school in Duxbury, Mass., to Duke. However, as is the case with many freshmen, Quinzani went through some growing pains last season before ending the season on a positive note. In his second campaign in Durham, N.C., Quinzani has been spectacular. He has an ability to find the net at a ridiculous pace. On Saturday against third-ranked Virginia, Quinzani was on point, netting seven goals en route to a 19-9 victory, many of which were done in highlight-reel type fashion. Quinzani increased his season goal total to 43 -- best in nation -- slightly above his teammate Zack Greer (42), making the Duke attack an impossible matchup. If the Blue Devils win it all in 2008, the attack trio could surface in discussions as one of the best of all-time. |
