Bain Jr., Mauigoa Named to 2025 All-ACC Preseason Team

CORAL GABLES, Fla. – University of Miami standouts Rueben Bain Jr. and Francis Mauigoa were both named to the 2025 Preseason All-ACC Team, as announced by the conference.

Bain served as one of Miami’s top defensive performers for a second consecutive season in 2024, despite missing four games due to injury. The junior defensive end tallied 23 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, and 3.5 sacks across nine starts.

Mauigoa started all 13 games at right tackle in 2024, anchoring a Miami offensive line that powered the nation’s top-ranked offense in both points per game (43.9) and total yards per game (537.2). He helped the Hurricanes eclipse 500 yards of offense in eight games, including a season-high 750-yard outburst against Ball State. A consistent presence up front, he earned second-team All-ACC honors following the 2024 season.
