WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. - Former Deacon standout Dave Wiedeman has been named to the 2010 ACC Basketball Tournament Legends class, as announced by the league office on Tuesday.
Wiedeman (1961-63), was one of the backcourt standouts for the legendary Wake Forest Head Coach Horace "Bones" McKinney during the early 1960s.
Wiedeman, a first-team All-ACC choice in 1963 and a second-team selection in 1962, helped lead the Deacons to a four-year record of 57-30, including a 34-8 mark in league play as Wake Forest captured ACC Championships in 1961 and 1962 and reached the Tournament finals in 1963.
In 1962, Wiedeman helped Wake Forest reach the NCAA Final Four, where the Deacons defeated UCLA for third place.
Wiedeman was named to the ACC All-Tournament first team in 1963 and to the second team in 1961 and 1962. He was named co-MVP of the Deacons in 1962 and MVP of the 1963 squad. Wiedeman now resides in Haddonfield, N.J.
The Legends will be honored at this year's ACC Men's Basketball Tournament in Greensboro at the annual ACC Basketball Legends Brunch, which will be held on Saturday, March 13.
