On Monday afternoon, HoopDirt.com announced their Week 10 Coach of the Week honorees. Roanoke College head coach Clay Nunley was named NCAA DIII Coach of the Week.
This is the sixth season that HoopDirt.com has run the Coach of the Week and Coach of the Year programs. Nunley is now eligible to receive the HoopDirt.com National Coach of the Year Award presented by Just Play Solutions which will be announced at the conclusion of the 2020-21 college basketball season.
Coach Nunley led Roanoke to a pair of victories by a combined three points this week. The Maroons knocked down a game-winning layup with just 2.3 seconds remaining for a thrilling 49-48 win over Ferrum on Thursday, before hanging on late for a 61-59 victory against Shenandoah on Saturday. After dropping their opener, Roanoke has won three straight games, and is 3-0 in conference play. They will face off against Emory & Henry at home on Tuesday evening.
