‘It’s a privilege to play for Clemson’ - Barnes had productive off-season in summer league

With football camp just getting started, football fans everywhere are focusing on the progress the players have made in the off-season. However, the football players aren’t the only Tigers who have been working hard during the summer months.

Fourteen players from Clemson’s baseball team have been competing in collegiate summer leagues across the nation to keep their skills sharp and their endurance up as they traveled to play games almost every day in the hottest months of summer.

Rising sophomore Charlie Barnes spent his summer as a left-handed pitcher for the Lexington County Blowfish in the Coastal Plain League alongside Clemson teammate Reed Rohlman.
