“We’re honored and pleased to have 13 members recognized on the ACC All-Academic teams,” UVa head coach Mark Bernardino said. “This honor is a testimony to the hard work they put forth in the classroom and their equally outstanding effort in the pool at this University.”

All 13 Cavaliers honored competed at the NCAA Championships. Buerger, Dicus, Haulsee, Kolod, Lloyd, Papendick and Perdue earned honorable mention All-America honors.

Grey (men’s 200 breast), Offutt (women’s 500 free and 1,650 free) and Perdue (women’s 200 free) all won individual ACC titles, while Ingraham (men’s 800 free relay) and Perdue (women’s 800 free relay) were a part of conference champion relays. Casey, Grey, Haulsee, Ingraham, Kolod, Murfee, Offutt, Papendick and Perdue were All-ACC performers.

Both the men’s and women’s programs won their sixth consecutive ACC Championships in 2013.
