Minimum requirements for selection to the All-ACC Academic Team are a 3.0 cumulative grade point average or higher and a 3.0 GPA or higher in the most recent semester.

Hrastar, a business administration major, posted a 13-9 overall singles record and 13-12 doubles mark in her inaugural collegiate campaign on The Flats.
