GREENSBORO, N.C. – The Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) held its annual women's basketball media day on Wednesday morning at the Grandover Resort in Greensboro, N.C. Head coach Quentin Hillsman and junior guards Brianna Butler and Brittney Sykes represented the Syracuse women's basketball team at ACC media day.

The Syracuse trio went through various media stations throughout the morning, including a formal press conference, one-on-one interviews with television and digital media networks, and a social media station.

"It's always a first-class experience at the ACC media day," Hillsman said. "They do an awesome job of moving us in and out of our sessions. Everything is relevant and about our season. Everything is about the success of our conference and celebrating our players. It is a very exciting day for us."
