Guy is the eighth women's basketball player to earn the Eagle of the Year Award.
CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – Senior Emma Guy was named BC's Female Eagle of the Year recipient on Friday. The male Eagle of the Year recipient is David Cotton from the men's hockey team.
The Nathaniel J. Hasenfus '22 Eagle of the Year Award is considered the highest honor bestowed upon a Boston College student-athlete. It is awarded annually to the male and female student-athletes who are outstanding citizens, leaders, scholars and athletes.
Guy, a product of Penfield, New York, became the eighth Boston College women's basketball player to earn the prestigious Eagle of the Year honor.
The 6-foot-3 forward led the ACC in field goal percentage (59.4), which ranked 10th in the country. She was second on the team in scoring (13.3) and rebounding (6.4). Guy tallied double-figures in 25 games, including 11 of the last 13 games of the season. In the win at Clemson, which was the Eagles fifth ACC road win, Guy opened up hitting her first 11 shots. She finished the game 12-for-14 from the floor for 24 points, eight rebounds and a steal.
Guy, who was an All-ACC First Team honoree this season, notched her 1,000th career point against Wake Forest at Conte Forum on February 2. She also hit one of the biggest shots in program history – a buzzer-beating layup which helped BC sweep the series against old rival Notre Dame on February 13.
A team co-captain, Guy finished her career with 108 games played, 91 starts, 1,164 points and 635 rebounds. She also owns the fifth highest single season field goal percentage in program history (59.4).
Guy helped Boston College to a 20-12 overall record and an 11-7 ACC record. The team placed tied for fourth in the ACC, the highest finish in program history. The 11 victories is also a program record since BC joined the ACC in the 2005-06 season.
