For the first time since 2003, Duke had two players selected for the first-team all-ACC squad. Overall, nine Blue Devils received all-ACC honors

CB Ross Cockrell and P Will Monday both made the first team. Cockrell, a redshirt junior and co-captain, leads the ACC with five interceptions, and he ranks third in total passes defended (17). In 12 games, he has amassed 63 tackles, 4.0 tackles for loss, and 12 pass breakups. Monday, a redshirt freshman, leads the ACC and ranks 14th nationally in punting average at 44.12 yards per punt. 

Here are two feature stories from earlier in the year, one on Cockrell and the other on Monday. 

For the third year in a row, Duke WR Conner Vernon was a second-team all-ACC selection. This year, he has caught a team-best (and school single-season record) 75 passes for 955 yards and seven touchdowns. Earlier this season, Vernon became the ACC’s all-time leader in both pass receptions and receiving yardage with 273 catches for 3,630 yards. In 2009, Vernon was on the freshmen all-ACC team. 

Vernon received 51 votes this year—two fewer than Boston College, WR Alex Amidon, who made the first team ahead of him. Amidon has 78 catches for 1,210 yards on the year. 

In case you missed it, I did a quick scan of Duke's offensive line for our daily ACC notebook today. Below is an except—click here to see the full write-up.

DURHAM—Eight offensive linemen started games for Duke last season. Seven return. So for the first time during coach David Cutcliffe’s tenure, Duke seems to have an abundance of experience.
But just how deep is the line? A full 10-deep, with a solid backup at every position, perhaps?
 

While Duke quarterback Sean Renfree will handle most of the snaps for the Blue Devils Saturday night against Richmond, his backup Brandon Connette will again play a critical role on offense, primarily as a runner.

Last season, Connette, (6-foot-2, 225 pounds) ran 78 times for 321 yards and eight touchdowns to finish as the team’s second-leading rusher.

Duke coach David Cutcliffe said both quarterbacks will play on Saturday.
