CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – For the second week in a row, Virginia’s Cam Ross has been named the ACC’s Specialist of the Week, the conference office announced Tuesday (Sept. 8). Ross is the first UVA returner to be named ACC Specialist of the Week in back-to-back weeks and the Cavaliers’ first specialist to earn consecutive ACC weekly honors since kicker Ian Frye did so in 2014.

Additionally, Ross currently leads the ACC and is third nationally in all-purpose yards per game (182.0). 

At NC State last Saturday (Sept. 6), Ross nabbed his second consecutive 100-yard performance in the Cavaliers’ return game. Of his 81 total punt return yards, 48 came on a return in the second quarter that set up UVA’s third touchdown of the day and helped the Cavaliers to a 24-14 lead at the half. Ross added five catches for 40 yards to up his all-purpose yard total for the game to 140.
