After helping lead Georgia Tech to its third-straight Atlantic Coast Conference road victory, senior defensive end Anree Saint-Amour (Suwanee, Ga./North Gwinnett) and redshirt freshman quarterback Tobias Oliver (Warner Robins, Ga./Northside) have been named the ACC Defensive Lineman and Rookie of the Week, respectively. The ACC office announced the honorees on Monday afternoon.

Saint-Amour continued to build his resume for all-conference and all-America accolades with a career day in Georgia Tech’s 38-28 win at North Carolina. He set new career highs with nine tackles and three quarterback hurries in the victory, with his nine stops including one behind the line of scrimmage.

Oliver earned the ACC’s Rookie of the Week award for the second-straight week after coming off the bench to account for 224 total yards and three touchdowns in the win at UNC. After entering the game late in the first quarter, Oliver ran for 120 yards and two touchdowns and completed 2-of-2 passes for 104 yards and a score. His 86-yard touchdown pass to A-back Qua Searcy (Barnesville, Ga./Lamar County) was the sixth-longest pass play in school history and the Jackets’ longest since 2009.
