A UNC golfer has been named to the All-ACC team.

Ben Griffin is a freshman on the Carolina golf team, from right here in Chapel Hill, and now he can add all-conference to his list of accolades. The conference announced the teams on Monday.

Griffin won two tournaments in his rookie season, both with a winning score of 10 under par. He finished the season with eight top-10 finishes in 11 tournaments this year, and for good measure he was in the top-25 in the other three.

Griffin led the Tar Heels with an average round of just under 71.

Griffin and the 19th-ranked Tar Heels will host the NCAA Chapel Hill Regional this week, May 14-16, at UNC Finley Golf Course. First round play will begin Thursday morning with the Tar Heels teeing off the #1 tee at 8 a.m.
