Duke to retire Elizabeth Williams' No. 1 jersey

DURHAM, N.C. -- Duke will retire Elizabeth Williams' No. 1 jersey during the Blue Devils' game against Kentucky on Dec. 29.

School officials said Monday that Williams will become the third women's basketball player to have her number retired, and her jersey will join Alana Beard's No. 20 and Lindsey Harding's No. 10 in the Cameron Indoor Stadium rafters.

Williams, who currently plays for the WNBA's Atlanta Dream, is the only player in ACC history selected four times to the Associated Press All-America team, and she was the first in conference history with more than 1,900 points, 1,000 rebounds and 400 blocked shots during her college career, which lasted from 2011 to 2015.
