NC State's Rollie Geiger has been named the ACC's men's cross country Coach of the Year for the 12th time.
RALEIGH, N.C. — In one of the least shocking news stories of the milennium, NC State’s Rollie Geiger has been voted the Atlantic Coast Conference men’s cross country Coach of the Year.

Geiger wins the award, voted on by the league’s 12 head coaches, less than a week after coaching his team to the ACC championship for the 11th time in 15 years. This marks the 12th time Geiger has been named the ACC coach of the year in men’s cross country, and the 33rd time he has been named ACC coach of the year. He has been named coach of the year in women’s cross 15 times, and in track and field six times. Between the three sports, he has won 40 ACC championships.
