Clemson softball continued its historic run with another first in its 8-0 win over Troy in its first ever NCAA Tournament game on Friday.
The Tigers dominated Troy from the outset and blasted four long balls in the game including two by Valerie Cagle. The ACC Player of the Year also put together another masterful performance in the circle with four scoreless innings with one hit, as she struck out 10.
The win on Saturday adds on to the long list of firsts that the Tigers have already accomplished in their first full season.
Head coach John Rittman is very familiar with postseason softball and was proud of the way his team controlled their emotions in the Tigers’ first taste of the NCAA Tournament.
