Clemson Baseball: Tigers Drop Series to #9 Virginia 2-1
Clemson dropped its weekend series to UVA, 2-1. The Cavaliers took the Thursday and Saturday games, with the Tigers picking up Friday’s contest.

Position: LB Height: 6’3 Weight: 236 40 yd Dash: 4.56 Shuttle Time: Unavailable Vertical Jump: Unavailable Broad Jump: Unavailable Bench Press: Unavailable College Performance: Wade Woodaz is your quintessential throwback LB.

Position: RB Height: 6’3” Weight: 232 40 yd Dash: 4.5 Shuttle Time: Unavailable Vertical Jump: 37” Broad Jump: 10’4” Bench Press: 26 reps College Performance: One of Clemson’s more intriguing players in the draft, Adam Randall started life at Clemson as a WR before converting to RB late in his career.

With last week’s frustrating series loss against North Carolina and a midweek victory over Charlotte behind them, the baseball Tigers face yet another grueling challenge in ACC play.

Clemson Basketball Adds Much-Needed Sharpshooter from Portal
The Clemson Tigers have landed 3-point dynamo, Cole Certa from Notre Dame. Cole Certa was a top 100 high school recruit that played two years at Notre Dame. While he didn’t play much as a freshman, last year he was the Irish’s most valuable offensive piece according to Evan Miya. His contributions came primarily in […]

It is perhaps the biggest regular season series of Erik Bakich’s stint at the Clemson head coach when his Tigers host another top 10 opponent in the North Carolina Tar Heels.

Clemson Basketball’s Transfer Portal Needs
Last offseason, Clemson needed to rebuild practically their entire roster. This offseason looks a lot different. While Coach Brownell will need to essentially rebuild his assistant coaching staff, much of the roster was retained. The biggest question mark what they do with an injured Carter Welling. Do they pay him significant money despite the likelihood […]
Clemson Baseball: Demon Deacons Dominate Tigers 15-4 in 7 innings.
Clemson’s nightmare March was so exciting, the Tigers decided to carry it over into April. This wasn’t so much a game as an 1980s horror movie, with Clemson playing the role of the hapless victim running up the stairs instead of out the front door to safety. The game was so terrible that Clemson’s official […]

Clemson’s Baseball woes continue with series loss to Miami
The Tigers came into the series with Miami desperately needing an ACC series win. Miami needed the same thing.

Clemson Basketball Season – Unsatisfyingly Successful?
Following a Round of 64 loss to 9-seed Iowa, Clemson basketball season is over. As we look back, it’s clear they did a remarkable job building a tournament team from a mostly empty roster. As remarkable as it was, it doesn’t feel satisfying. The Tigers finished 5th in the ACC at 12-6 and made the […]
