ATLANTA – Georgia Tech senior Lyndsay Shosho and sophomore Kristi Miller were named to the 2006 all-Atlantic Coast Conference team, as announced by the conference office Wednesday morning.
The two Yellow Jackets standouts have led Tech to 18 wins during the regular season, including nine in ACC matches, as well as the No. 1 seed in this week’s ACC Championships. Tech is currently ranked 10th in the nation, according to the latest Fila/ITA Rankings.
