The Atlantic Coast Conference
Consistency. It is the mark of true excellence in any endeavor. However, in today’s intercollegiate athletics, competition has become so balanced and so competitive that it is virtually impossible to maintain a high level of consistency.
Yet the Atlantic Coast Conference has defied the odds. Now in its 57th year of competition, the ACC has long enjoyed the reputation as one of the strongest and most competitive intercollegiate conferences in the nation. And that is not mere conjecture, the numbers support it.
The nine schools that carry the ACC banner have produced 63 first or second team All-Americans, five National Player of the Years, four NGCA Division I Player of the Years, three national freshmen of the years, and six National Coach of the Years.
