Max Wagner shocked at ACC honor, says he hasn't thought about MLB Draft

CLEMSON – Max Wagner was shocked when he heard the news that he had won the ACC Player of the Year Award, but he was happy it happened in front of his teammates as they prepared to leave for this week’s ACC Baseball Championship in Charlotte.

Wagner is Clemson’s 14th ACC Player-of-the-Year and first since 2016 (Seth Beer). Wagner also earned First-Team All-ACC honors.

He was asked Monday if he could put his emotions into words.

“I don't think I can. It's been an incredible ride, just all of the hard work I've been able to put in over the past year or year and a half,” Wagner said.
