CHARLOTTE, N.C. - For the second consecutive season, Wake Forest men's basketball senior guard Hunter Sallis has been named a first-team All-ACC selection as announced by the league office on Monday.
Fellow senior guard Cameron Hildreth also earned an honorable mention nod.
With his back-to-back selections to the first team, Sallis becomes the first Demon Deacon to earn multiple first-team All-ACC selections since Wake Forest Sports Hall of Famer Tim Duncan's three-straight from 1995-97.
Additionally, he is the 10th player in program history to earn two or more first-team All-ACC honors.

With his selection, Wake Forest has also had a first-team All-ACC selection four consecutive seasons, the longest such streak since 1992-97.
The Demon Deacons are also the only ACC program to have a first-team All-ACC selection each of the last four seasons
This season, the Omaha, Neb., native has started all 31 of his appearances averaging a team-high 18 points per game along with leading the team in field goals made (202), three pointers made (42) and assists (88).
During ACC play, Sallis was sixth in the conference in scoring (18.1 points per game) as he reached the 20-point mark 10 times including a season-high 30 in a home victory against Stanford in January.
Overall, Sallis led the Deacs in scoring 16 times and in assists 15 times this season.
Hildreth, meanwhile, was an honorable mention selection as the two-way guard continued to put his stamp on both ends of the floor in 2024-25.
Offensively, the Worting, England, native is averaging a career-high 14.9 points per game and reached the 20-point mark 10 times in ACC play.
Defensively, Hildreth's 33 steals in conference games ranks No. 6 in the ACC.
A four-year member of the program, Hildreth is one game away from matching the program record for career appearances.
