Turner Named Nighthawk of the Week

1/12/2026 12:24:00 PM

DAHLONEGA – University of North Georgia (UNG) men's basketball player Colin Turner has been voted this week's Chick-fil-a Nighthawk of the Week.

Turner totaled 35 points on an efficient 13-of-21 shooting with 19 rebounds and three assists, posting a 15-point, 11-rebound double-double in just 24 minutes against GCSU before following it with a 20-point, eight-rebound showing versus Georgia Southwestern.

The Nighthawk of the Week title sponsor is Chick-fil-a of Dahlonega, with each week's winner being treated to a complimentary combo meal at the Dahlonega restaurant. Located at 488 Morrison Moore Parkway East, Chick-fil-a loves to give back to the local area and is proud to be a community partner with UNG Athletics.
 
Beginning in the fall of 2014, the UNG athletic department began honoring one student-athlete each Monday morning as the Nighthawk of the Week. The award is chosen each Sunday evening by an award selection committee made up of members of the UNG athletics leadership team.

North Georgia will return to action on Wednesday, Jan. 14, with a road matchup against Middle Georgia.
