The 2022-2023 Virginia athletics year is officially in the books. It was another remarkable year for the Wahoos across every sport and CavaliersNow will be taking some time this summer to recap some of UVA's best moments and incredible achievements from the 2022-2023 seasons. 

In this story, we'll recognize all of the Virginia athletes who earned an Atlantic Coast Conference player of the year award or who was named to an All-ACC team this year. 

Note: for most sports, All-ACC teams are selected by a media or coaches vote at the end of the season. The exceptions are cross country (top 21 finishers at the ACC Championships), swimming & diving (podium finishers at the ACC Championships), wrestling (champion and runner-up at ACC Championships), and indoor and outdoor track & field (first-team for podium finishers, second-team for placing 4th through 6th at ACC Championships).
