DURHAM – The Atlantic Coast Conference released the 2021 All-ACC Academic Softball Team as six Blue Devils received the honor, as announced by the league office Monday morning.

Senior Peyton St. George reeled in her third All-ACC Academic Team accolade while senior Jameson Kavel and juniors Deja Davis and Kristina Foreman received the honor for the second year. Freshman Gisele Tapia and junior Shelby Walters earned the honor for the first time in their careers.
Â
The Blue Devils put together a historic season with a 44-12 overall record, an ACC Championship title and its first NCAA appearance as the No. 13 national seed.
