CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - The North Carolina novice eight finished a team-best third and junior Lisy McIntee was named All-Atlantic Coast Conference for the second year in a row on Saturday at the ACC Rowing Championships, held on Lake Hartwell.
Virginia took the crown for the eighth time in the eight-year history of the event. The Cavaliers won all four races and finished with 60 points. Host Clemson was second with 46, Duke was third with 43, Miami was fourth with 25, Boston College was fifth with 23 and UNC was sixth overall with 13 points.
McIntee, from Bala Cynwyd, Pa., represented the Tar Heels on the 14-member all-conference team. Virginia swept the awards for ACC Coach of the Year (Kevin Sauer), ACC Crew of the Year (UVa varsity eight) and ACC Freshman of the Year (Jennifer Cromwell).
