The Clemson softball team is in the middle of a whirlwind week after winning the ACC regular season Championship this past Sunday at Syracuse.
On Tuesday the Tigers were awarded a host of conference awards. Head coach John Rittman was named ACC Coach of the Year, Valerie Cagle earned ACC Player of the Year and ACC Freshman of the Year and nine players made the all-conference team.
Rittman credited the culture surrounding the program for all of the Tigers’ success in their first full-season in the ACC.
“We have a great coaching staff, a great support staff and a great administration that gives us everything we need to compete at the highest level,” Rittman said in-person at McWhorter Stadium in Clemson on Tuesday.
