Eight Named to All-ACC Academic Team; Beck Tabbed Scholar-Athlete of the Year

DURHAM – The ACC released the women’s tennis All-ACC Academic Team on Wednesday with eight members of the Duke squad receiving honors, while senior Chloe Beck was tabbed the ACC Scholar-Athlete of the Year for the second consecutive year.

Along with Beck on the All-ACC Academic team were Karolina Berankova, Iuliia Bryzgalova, Ellie Coleman, Georgia Drummy, Emma Jackson, Cameron Morra and Brianna Shvets.  The eight selections were the most in school history.  

A native of Watkinsville, Ga., Beck became the first Blue Devil to be selected ACC Scholar-Athlete of the Year on multiple occasions and is one of only two Duke women’s tennis standouts to earn the honor – Samantha Harris (2018).  Beck is coming off an impressive season in which she became the fourth Duke standout to post 30 or more singles and doubles wins in a season.

Beck collected a 33-5 singles and 30-5 doubles mark, while being ranked as high as No. 2 nationally.  She earned ITA National Senior Player of the Year, ITA All-American and advanced to the round of 16 of the NCAA Singles Championship.  Beck received All-ACC Academic Team honors for the third straight year.  

Drummy and Morra earned All-ACC Academic Team honors for the third year in a row as well, while Coleman and Jackson were named for the second consecutive season.  Berankova, Bryzgalova and Shvets earned the accolade for the first time in their career.  

The ACC Scholar-Athlete of the Year award was established in September 2007 to be awarded annually to the top junior or senior student-athlete in their respective sports. Academic requirements for selection to the All-ACC Academic Team are a 3.0-grade point average for the previous semester and a 3.0 cumulative average during one’s academic career. In addition, student-athletes must compete in at least 50 percent of their team’s contests.
