Hurricane Florence truly hit close to home for Clemson’s Sam Hall

As Hurricane Florence moves inland, the impact of the storm’s heavy winds and rain will begin being felt along the South Carolina Coastline, if it already hasn’t.

Clemson head football coach Dabo Swinney said earlier this week six of his players’ families are being affected by the storm. A couple of them got in front of the storm and evacuated to Clemson.

But, it just isn’t the football program that is being affected by Florence. On the baseball team, Clemson outfielder Sam Hall is being directly affected by Florence. Hall’s small town of Hampstead, N.C., was right in the path of the hurricane as it made landfall Friday morning near Topsail Beach.
