ACC Announces Postseason Awards, All-ACC Teams
The ACC announced its postseason awards Sunday afternoon following another fine season of college basketball. Though, for some, the journey has not quite come to an end, this is an opportunity to take a second out and appreciate what has been accomplished up to this point.
For instance, it was Virginia's Malcolm Brogdon who was voted both ACC Player of the Year and ACC Defensive Player of the Year, and Duke's Brandon Ingram who earned Freshman of the Year honors. With another impressive season in south Florida, Miami's Jim Larranaga was voted ACC Coach of the Year. North Carolina's Isaiah Hicks and Clemson's Jaron Blossongame Jr. rounded things out by being named the ACC's Sixth Man of the Year and Most Improved Player of the Year, respectively.
But what about the All-ACC teams?
Brogdon, the ACC POY, and UNC senior Brice Johnson are the only unanimous members of All-ACC first team, but they're joined by a talented group.
