Four Jackets named to All-ACC academic football team

Georgia Tech offensive linemen Parker Braun and Andrew Marshall, defensive end Rod Rook-Chungong and wide receiver Brad Stewart were named to the academic All-ACC football team.

To be considered for academic All-ACC honors, an athlete must have earned a 3.0 GPA in the previous semester and have a 3.0 cumulative GPA. There were 66 players overall named to the team. Tech tied for fourth for most players on the team.

Braun, who started the final eight games of the season at guard, finished his first semester at Tech and is majoring in literature, media and communications. Marshall, a junior, started nine games at offensive tackle and is studying business administration.

Rook-Chungong, a senior who graduated in December with a degree in literature, media and communication, started all 13 games this past season. Stewart, a sophomore, also started all 13 games and is majoring in mechanical engineering.
