The honor is the third for Caponi, who won his third-consecutive ACC crown at 184 pounds. Henrich nabbed All-ACC honors at 174 pounds for the second year in a row after winning the league title. It is the first All-ACC honor for Jones, who won the ACC 197-pound title and then was deemed the ACC Championships Most Outstanding Wrestler. Sewell also won All-ACC honors for the first time in the 165-pound class.
Henrich won All-America honors this year, becoming the 10th All-American in Virginia history after going 4-2 at the NCAA Championships. He finished the year with a 40-3 record – the fourth-most wins in a single season in Virginia history and the most victories ever by a UVa sophomore.
Caponi went 17-7 this year and competed at the NCAA Championships for the fourth year in a row. He finished his career with a 111-33 career record and three ACC titles.
Jones posted a 29-8 mark this season and advanced to the NCAA Championships for the first time in his career. He earned a team-high 12 pins and tied the program record for career falls with 34.
Sewell battled injuries to earn a 13-8 record in 2008-09. He won his first two bouts at the ACC Championships before losing a close match to North Carolina's Keegan Mueller in the championship match.
