Meredith prepared for this moment

In his three years at Clemson Kier Meredith has experienced injuries, success and personal tragedy.

Meredith entered his freshman season with a nagging injury from high school and watched most of his first two seasons from the dugout because of a shoulder and leg injuries. Then, in August of 2019, his dad Tracey Meredith passed away after nearly a decade long battle with kidney disease.

Kier Meredith remembers when his dad taught him to play baseball when he was just three years old. Playing at the highest level is not a personal ambition for the redshirt junior, but it was a shared dream between a son and his father.
