These four Tar Heels deserved the honor.
Today, the ACC announced conference awards. On the All-ACC teams, Armando Bacot, RJ Davis, and Harrison Ingram were named. Davis also won Player of the Year in the conference. It has been a bounce-back season for North Carolina, and the two returning starters were a major reason for that. Elliot Cadeau was named All-Rookie.

Dominant Starters
These players put together, have been a nightmare for opposing teams. Davis leads the conference in scoring, while Bacot leads the conference in rebounding. That has created a tough-to-stop offense that averages the most points in the ACC. It helped the team win the ACC regular season title, losing just three games in conference play and only one at home. The team is now in position for a one or two seed in the NCAA tournament.
Season Stats
Armando Bacot- 13.9 points, 10.1 rebounds, and 1.6 blocks per game.

Congratulations to these four on a great season!
