He started all 16 games last year and hauled in 58 passes for 810 yards and four touchdowns, all career highs. 4 ACC Wrestlers of the Year have come from Virginia after fourth-year George DiCamillo joined the club in late March following a second-place finish at 141 pounds in the NCAA Championships, which matched the highest-ever showing at nationals for a Wahoo.
