During Virginia's September 20th game against BYU, Kicker Ian Frye's father suffered a heart attack.

Frye found out during halftime, and spoke to his father. However, he decided to stay with the team, knocking through a 46-yard second half field goal. His efforts resulted in his being named ACC Specialist of the Week. He learned about the award via text from his father, who recovered in a Provo hospital and is doing well.
