Four different Demon Deacon teams -- field hockey, women's golf, men's indoor track and men's outdoor track -- received the ACC Sportsmanship Award within their respective sports in 2004-05.
Teams receiving the awards have conducted themselves with a high degree of character and good sportsmanship, as determined by a vote of the league's teams.
The conference presents sportsmanship awards for each of its 25 sponsored sports. The concept of these awards was created by the ACC Student Athlete Advisory Committee in an effort to recognize teams who earned the utmost regard from their peers during competition. As is stated in the conference's Mission Statement, "It [the ACC] strongly adheres to the principles of integrity and sportsmanship, and supports the total development of the student-athlete and each member institution's athletics department staff, with the intent of producing enlightened leadership for tomorrow."
