The ACC recognized three Pitt football players for their performances in Thursday’s home game against Virginia Tech.
Senior tackle T.J. Clemmings was named the conference’s Co-Offensive Lineman of the Week, sophomore cornerback Reggie Mitchell was picked as Defensive Back of the Week and redshirt freshman punter Ryan Winslow was given Specialist of the Week.
The ACC has now recognized Clemmings twice this season for the honors, as the first time came in Pitt’s Sept. 5 victory over Boston College. Clemmings was part of an offensive line Thursday that allowed Pitt to rush for over 200 yards as a team. He shared this week’s honors with Duke center Matt Skura and Florida State guard Tre’ Jackson.
Mitchell, a transfer from Wisconsin, had a game-high 10 tackles and forced two fumbles in the game. He also had an interception in the end zone that was called back because of a penalty.
Winslow punted seven times in the game, including two punts downed within Virginia Tech’s five-yard line. He matched his career long with a 50-yard punt.
Pitt plays next on Saturday at home against Georgia Tech at 3:30 p.m.
