In the long line of outstanding Atlantic Coast Conference golfers, only one has captured two outright conference individual championships: Wake Forest's Scott Hoch. The Raleigh, N.C., player captured those back-to-back ACC titles in 1977 and 1978 while earning All-America honors.

After leading the Deacs to the 1978 conference championship and earning his degree from Wake Forest as a dean's list student, Hoch joined the professional ranks where he reached the winner's circle in 1980 with a victory at the Quad Cities Open. Hoch has won 11 PGA Tour events, including the 2001 Greater Greensboro Chrysler Classic. His last PGA Tour victory was the Ford Championship at Doral in 2003.

In addition to his $18 million in earnings on the PGA Tour, Hoch has won three times on the Champions Tour. He has been a generous benefactor the Arnold Palmer Children's Hospital in Orlando, Fla.

Hoch, born Nov. 24, 1955 in Raleigh, was inducted into the Wake Forest Sports Hall of Fame in 1991.
