NC State men’s swimming and diving senior Andreas Vazaios added to his decorated 2018-19 campaign as he was named the 2019 ACC Men’s Swimming & Diving Scholar-Athlete of the Year. In addition to Vazaios’s honors, the Wolfpack had 23 of its swimmers and divers honored as members of the Academic All-ACC Teams.
 
The ACC Scholar-Athlete of the Year awards were established in advance of the 2007-08 athletic season and recognize the top junior or senior student-athletes in their respective sports each year. This season marks the third year in a row that a Wolfpack swimmer has been honored as ACC Men’s Swimming & Diving Scholar-Athlete of the Year.

Vazaios, a psychology major from Athens, Greece, repeated as national champion in the 200-yard butterfly at the 2019 NCAA Championships and earned All-America honors in a total of five events at the national meet. His butterfly title came in record-setting fashion as he lowered his own ACC and program records in the event and swam the fourth-fastest time in NCAA history on the way to taking home gold. Vazaios also finished on the podium in three individual events and one relay at the 2019 ACC Championships.

Academically, Vazaios owns a 3.792 cumulative GPA and is a two-time CSCAA Scholar All-American. In 2018, he was honored as a Google Cloud Academic All-American.

Additionally, 23 from NC State were named to the Academic All-ACC Team. Minimum academic requirements for selection to the Academic All-ACC Team are a 3.0 grade point average for the previous semester and a 3.0 cumulative GPA during one’s academic career for undergraduate students. Athletic achievements are also considered in selection.
