Butler has Clemson women thinking NCAAs

Clemson women’s basketball coach Amanda Butler has positioned her team for a possible NCAA Tournament bid.

The Tigers (17-9, 8-5 ACC), No. 41 in the latest RPI rankings, which will be used by the selection committee in deciding its field of 64 next month, are looking to make their first NCAA Tournament since the 2002 season.

So far this year, Clemson has won three games over ranked teams, including two over a Florida State team that is 21-3 against all other competition.

Butler, in her first season as head coach, has coached the Tigers to eight ACC wins so far, seven victories more than last year’s mark.
