CLEMSON — At the end of Clemson’s 5-1 victory over Kentucky, Clemson’s marketing department played The Bluest Eyes in Texas over the loud speakers as the Tigers’ celebrated their third regional championship in five years.
The reason they played Restless Heart’s hit song from 1988 is simple, that is where the Tigers are going next. Clemson will be deep in the heart of Texas next week when they hit the road for Austin, Texas, where they will battle No. 6 overall seed the Texas Longhorns in the Super Regional Round of the NCAA Softball Tournament.
Clemson (47-12) will be vying for its first trip to the Women’s College World Series.
