GREENSBORO, N.C. — Clemson made of 18 of 19 free throws, including 11 of 12 in the final 3:48 from the foul line to advance to the quarterfinal round of the ACC Tournament with a 69-64 victory over No. 9 seed Miami at the Greensboro Coliseum in Greensboro.
The Tigers, the No. 8 seed, advance to the ACC Tournament’s Quarterfinals for the second time in the last three years, where they will play top-seed Florida State on Thursday at noon.
It looked like Hunter Tyson’s three-pointer with 1:35 to go was going to be the final nail in the coffin for Clemson as it gave the Tigers a 62-53 lead.
