GREENVILLE – Chris Thompson and his J.L. Mann baseball teammates executed the perfect celebratory dog pile following their win over Northwestern in the AAAA Upper State Championship Friday evening, and now the Clemson commit and his fellow Patriots will dance their way into AAAA State Championship Series against Wando.
It will be the second-most important dance Thompson has been to this spring.
The junior outfielder – who committed to Clemson last December – has been a key cog in Mann’s march to the state championship this spring and the joy on his face after Friday’s 7-3 win was evident as he celebrated with this teammates and looked forward to next week’s title series.
