The Atlantic Coast Conference awards championships in 28 sports—13 men's and 15 women's (women's gymnastics was added for the 2023-24 school year with the addition of Clemson). Nationally, fencing (which was relaunched as an official conference sport in 2014–15 after having been absent since 1980) is a coeducational sport, offering one team title since 1990, while ACC titles are awarded to the men's and women's teams. In all sports except volleyball, champions are determined by a post-season game, tournament, or meet. In football, the teams with the best conference records play in the ACC Championship Game for the conference title. The volleyball title is awarded based on regular-season play.

Baseball

Main article: ACC Baseball Tournament

The ACC Baseball champion was determined by regular season finish from 1954 until 1972 and in 1979. The ACC Tournament has determined the champion since 1973.[2] All current conference members field baseball teams except SMU and Syracuse. Both schools were without baseball for more than 40 years before joining the ACC—Syracuse, a member since 2013, last sponsored baseball in the 1972 season, and SMU, which joined in 2024, last sponsored baseball in the 1980 season.

  1. ^ No tournament; the champion was determined by regular season finish.
  2. ^ No tournament due to conflict with exams; the champion was determined by regular season finish.

All full members sponsor women's basketball. The ACC began sponsoring women's basketball in the 1977–78 season.[4]

Cross country

Fencing

Main article: Atlantic Coast Conference Fencing Championships

Four schools—Boston College, Duke, North Carolina, and Notre Dame—relaunched ACC fencing in the 2014–15 school year after the sport had been absent from the conference since 1980. Stanford, which joins in 2024–25, also sponsors the sport. Fencing was a men's sport during the first era of ACC fencing from 1971 to 1980. Today, ACC fencing is a coeducational sport, with teams fielding separate men's and women's squads and all bouts involving a single sex. Although the NCAA Fencing Championships award only a single team title, the ACC Fencing Championships award separate men's and women's team titles.[9]

Field hockey

Nine schools—Boston College, California, Duke, Louisville, North Carolina, Stanford, Syracuse, Virginia, and Wake Forest—will sponsor women's field hockey in the upcoming 2024 season.[10][11]

Football

See also: ACC Championship Game and List of Atlantic Coast Conference football champions

The ACC football champion was determined based on regular season finish from 1953 until 2004. In 2005, the conference split into two divisions, and the division winners met in the ACC Championship Game through the 2022 season.[12] The football divisions were eliminated in 2020 and after the 2022 season. Notre Dame has never been an ACC member in football, except for the 2020 season on a temporary basis due to the COVID-19 pandemic; that season, they played in (but lost) the football conference championship. They have otherwise remained independent but have a yearly 5-game scheduling agreement with the ACC.

  1. ^ Georgia Tech's 2009 championship was vacated by the NCAA Committee on Infractions[13]

Golf

Gymnastics

Women's

The ACC sponsored women's gymnastics for one season, 1984. Duke discontinued their program following the season, and the conference stopped sponsoring the sport until renewing the competition in the 2024 season.[16] The conference initially planned to resume sponsoring gymnastics once Pittsburgh joined in 2013–14,[17] but backed away from those plans once Maryland announced its 2014 departure for the Big Ten.

The ACC women's gymnastics league will expand from 4 to 6 teams in 2024–25 with the arrival of California and Stanford.

Lacrosse

Indoor track and field

  1. ^ a b Florida State's 2006–2007 season was vacated by the NCAA Committee on Infractions.

Rowing

Florida State, Georgia Tech, NC State, Pitt, Virginia Tech, and Wake Forest do not sponsor women's rowing. [24]

Soccer

Softball

All schools except current members Miami and Wake Forest, and future member SMU, sponsor softball.[27] The next change to ACC softball membership will be the addition of California and Stanford for the 2025 season and beyond.

  2. ^ a b Maryland dropped men's and women's swimming and diving in 2012, two years before it left for the Big Ten.
  3. ^ Wake Forest has dropped men's swimming and diving.

Tennis

Volleyball

Women's

All 18 current and future ACC members sponsor women's volleyball. The only one that sponsors the sport for men is incoming member Stanford, which will remain a member of the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation.

The women's volleyball championship was determined through a tournament from 1980 until 2004. Since 2005, champions have been based on the regular season.[36]

Wrestling

The championship was determined on dual meets in 1954 and 1955, with the tournament beginning in 1956. Seven schools (Duke, North Carolina, NC State, Pittsburgh, Stanford, Virginia, and Virginia Tech) will compete in wrestling in the 2024–25 season.[37] The most recent changes to the ACC include the entry of Pitt in 2013 and departure of Maryland in 2014, with Stanford joining in 2024.
