CLEMSON - You hear a lot about the star players - the ones recruited as the top high school prospects, No. 1 in the state, State Champions. You hear about the flashy players - the quarterback, running back, the receivers, the defenders. But you don’t hear about the guy who had to fight just to get a chance to be on the roster, the guy who plays a position some fans don’t even know the name of: the long snapper.
While starting junior long snapper Philip Florenzo plays a critical role on the team, not much is heard about him or his amazing journey to becoming a starter for the Tigers.
