Who is Tyrese Proctor’s GF Ava Carney? All we know about Duke guard's love life

Clemson v Duke
Tyrese Proctor's GF is also an athlete.

Duke's Tyrese Proctor girlfriend, Ava Carney, is a Miami Hurricanes volleyball player.

Carney joined the ACC school, as a transfer from conference rival school Wake Forest. She had a stellar true freshman season with the Demon Deacons in 2023 and will join the Hurricanes in 2024 for her sophomore outing.

Last year she earned an ACC All-Freshman selection, only the 15th person in Wake Forest history to do so. She ranked third in blocks (57.0) and second in kills for the team (322). She had at least 10 kills in 20 games and played 29 games of which she started on 16.

It seems that her stellar first year showed her a professional path long term, as a statement from 2023 shows she elected Wake Forest for its higher academic standards:

"I chose Wake Forest because, as soon as I stepped foot on campus, it felt like home. Additionally, the coaches and players are very welcoming. The program is continuously growing on a daily basis. The high academic reputation, beautiful campus, surrounding community, and opportunity to grow the volleyball program all were factors that drew me to Wake."
