Pereira's 'Breakfast of Champions' powered her to tying an ACC Tournament record

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Cammy Pereira started off her morning with a trip to the omelet bar at the Clemson team hotel in Louisville on Thursday.

And though she did not eat her Wheaties, it was obvious the omelet was her “Breakfast of Champions.”

Pereira hit a pair of home runs to lift the 10th-ranked Tigers over Georgia Tech, 2-0, in the quarterfinals of the ACC Softball Tournament. Pereira tied an ACC Tournament record with the two home-run game and was the first to record a multi-homer game since the 2017 tournament.

Pereira entered the tournament with one long ball on the season and tripled her total in a game where Clemson struggled to gain momentum at the plate.
