Clemson did it again, and this time they did it to No. 3 Florida State.

For third time in the ACC Championships, the 10th-ranked Tigers rallied to win a game and this time it gave the Tigers’ their first ACC Tournament Championship.

Trailing by a run, and with a runner on base and with one out in the seventh inning, Kylee Johnson took a 1-2 pitch from reliever Jazzy Francik and drove it over the wall in straightway centerfield for a two-run homer, lifting Clemson to an improbable 2-1 come-from-behind win.

Not only did it give the Tigers their first ACC Tournament Championship, but also their first win over Florida State at Harrington Village in Brighton, Mass.
