Four Cavaliers Earn All-ACC Honors

Two Virginia singles players as well as two doubles pairings earned conference recognition.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – Two Virginia singles players and two doubles pairings earned All-ACC recognition as announced Thursday (April 23) by the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Senior Annabelle Xu and junior Vivian Yang were named to the All-ACC Second Team for singles. Yang and fifth-year Melodie Collard were named to the All-ACC First Team for doubles and Xu and sophomore Martina Genis Salas earned third-team honors.

This is Xu's third All-ACC singles honor, as she was named to the first team in 2024 and the third team in 2025. She finished the spring with a 10-6 record, including a 5-2 mark in ACC play, with seven ranked wins playing primarily on court two. Xu was named ACC Player of the Week for the second time in her career on March 31.

Yang, a transfer from Peppperdine, earns her first All-ACC singles honor. She posted a 6-4 mark in conference play with a 9-11 overall record this season and was named ACC Player of the Week on March 16. While at Pepperdine, she was named to the All-WCC Singles First Team in 2025. 

Yang and Collard led the Cavaliers with an 18-7 record on the top doubles court this spring, including an 8-3 mark in ACC play. The pair was named ACC Doubles Team of the Week on April 14 and sat as high as No. 3 in the ITA doubles rankings. This is Collard's third consecutive season being named to the All-ACC First Team for doubles.

Xu and Genis Salas, the No. 26 tandem in the ITA doubles rankings, went 16-5 on doubles court two with an 8-3 conference record. This is both of their first conference doubles recognition.
