Harris named ACC Defensive MVP by The Sporting News

The awards keep rolling in for Virginia Tech senior cornerback Victor “Macho†Harris as The Sporting News named him the ACC’s Defensive MVP for the 2008 season. The publication will announce its all-freshman squad Tuesday and its All-America squads on Wednesday.

Harris was a finalist for the Dudley Award and was voted one of the Hokies’ permanent captains – along with Orion Martin, Ryan Shuman and Brett Warren – this past weekend.

Harris has six interceptions this year, returning two for scores. He was named first-team All-ACC by ACSMA and second-team All-America by Rivals.
