Before the Atlantic Coast Conference and the NCAA came down with an official announcement about competition of the winter and spring sports, in wake of the COVID-19 Virus, No. 19 Clemson defeated Winthrop 3-2 in 11 innings on Wednesday night.
As the game progressed major conferences cancelled their tournaments, the NBA suspended their season and individual institutions moved university classes online for the foreseeable future. The President of the United States even addressed the nation about the rapidly spreading disease.
With the progression of decisions to eliminate the threat of spreading the virus at sporting events, it became clear the extra-inning game at Doug Kingsmore Stadium may be the last live sporting event played by a Clemson team this spring.
