Greensboro, NC ACC SAAC Conference Update – Rachel Regone and Tyler Morey Thank you for filling out Championship Surveys – let’s remember to keep the language clean and mature – Men’s Soccer: Wanted all games for the conference tournament played on the main field. Denied because of lighting issues, etc – Men’s & Women’s Swimming and Diving: Potential combined conference championship denied – Men’s & Women’s Track and Field: Wanted all conference championships to be held at Virginia Tech. Denied, but next year’s championship may be held there – Men’s and Women’s XC: Will probably move to chip system for timing to ensure better accuracy – Volleyball: Potential conference tournament with decrease of regular season games, be on the lookout for a survey
Conference-Wide Community Service Project – Positive discussion about it, will probably start serious discussion on dates and ideas next September
The ACC would like to remind all student-athletes that they are a non-profit organization and 90% of the money they make is returned to the conference institutions
Community Service idea from Florida State – “Semi-gnome” – an object that is passed around teams and photographed in community service projects those teams do – When a team receives the gnome, they have about two weeks to do a community service project
Sportsmanship Award – Clemson’s ACC nominees were Maggie Bernard and C.J. Spiller – Maggie Bernard was chosen by the ACC to represent us at the national level for the NCAA Sportsmanship Award!
Jason Chatlosh & Lauren Klas: Solid Orange Benefit Update Solid Orange Benefit cancelled due to lack of sufficient time for planning Student-Athlete Lunch Date Auction proposed in its place – Clemson Compliance uncomfortable with idea, so idea dismissed
Despite disappointment, work on both projects lays a solid foundation for successful work next year
