ACC Release


GREENSBORO, N.C. – Virginia Tech wrestling's Connor Brady, Sam Latona and Korbin Myers were named to the All-ACC Academic Wrestling Team, as announced by the league office on Wednesday.

Brady majors in business, Latona majors in management and Myers is working on his master's degree in agriculture and life sciences. 

This year's All-ACC Academic Wrestling Team includes eight All-Americans, 20 NCAA qualifiers and student-athletes who earned a combined eight ACC Wrestler of the Week honors.

The ACC Scholar-Athlete of the Year awards were established in September of 2007 to be awarded annually to the top junior or senior student-athlete in their respective sports. Candidates for the awards must have maintained a 3.0 grade point average for their careers, as well as a 3.0 for each of the last two semesters.

Minimum academic requirements for selection to the All-ACC Academic Team are a 3.0 grade point average for the previous semester and a 3.0 cumulative average during one's academic career. Athletic achievements during the most recent season are also considered in selecting the All-ACC Academic Team.

The ACC Honor Roll, which recognizes all conference student-athletes with a grade point average of 3.0 for the current academic year, will be released in July.
