Greensboro, NC - The Atlantic Coast Conference announced its 10-member All-ACC Academic men's basketball team on Thursday. Clemson had a league-best three of the 10 players on the team, led by second-time honoree Cliff Hammonds. It marks the most All-Academic selections for the Tiger program since the 1983-84 team placed four on the squad.
Hammonds was named to the Dean's List in the spring semester and boasts over a 3.0 cumulative grade-point average in architecture and psychology. He was fourth on the Tiger squad this season in scoring with 11.6 points per game and also ranked second in the league in assist-to-turnover ratio (2.49). He is a veteran of 100 career games and last season became just the 15th junior in school history to reach 1,000 career points.
