Ramirez, a senior in the Engineering School, won three individual events and also won ACC Most Valuable Swimmer honors as the Virginia men's swimming team captured its second straight ACC title Saturday in Chapel Hill. The two-time Academic All-American won his fourth consecutive Conference titles in the 1,650-yard freestyle and the 500 free.
