RALEIGH, N.C. - NC State gymnastics junior Elle Hadrick and sophomore Syniya Thomas have each earned All-ACC honors following the conclusion of the 2026 NCAA collegiate gymnastics regular season, the league announced this week.
The All-ACC Team consists of the top six ranked ACC performers on each of the four events — vault, bars, beam and floor — along with the top two all-around scorers. All rankings are determined by National Qualifying Score (NQS).
Both gymnasts are earning the honor for the first time in their careers. Thomas earned All-ACC recognition on both vault and floor, while Hadrick collected the honor on bars. Although Hadrick was named to the All-ACC Championship Team on floor in 2025, this marks her first regular-season all-conference distinction.
Thomas and Hadrick have been two of the Wolfpack's top performers throughout the 2026 campaign. Thomas leads the team with 22 podium finishes and eight event titles, while Hadrick has totaled 13 podium finishes and seven event wins.
The duo also owns NC State's top scores this season on three of the four apparatuses. Thomas posted a 9.975 on floor and a 9.900 on beam, while Hadrick recorded a 9.975 on bars. Each of those marks stands as either the highest or tied for the highest score by a Wolfpack gymnast on the respective event this season, and all three scores also serve as career highs for the two gymnasts.
The pair secured their spots on the all-league squad with top six NQS marks in the ACC. Thomas earned her honors with a 9.875 NQS on vault and a 9.900 NQS on floor, while Hadrick's 9.900 NQS on bars earned her all-conference recognition.
NC State now turns its attention to postseason competition, as the Wolfpack earned the No. 4 seed for the 2026 ACC Championship in Greensboro on Saturday, March 21. That seeding places the Pack in Session II, which is set for 7 p.m. and will air on ACC Network.
