When he was 15 years old, Monte Lee was asked by his high school baseball coach what he wanted to do when he grew up.
Lee’s answer was simple and to the point.
“I told him, ‘I want to grow up and be a coach.’ That is all I have ever wanted to do,” Clemson’s head coach said.
It was a good choice.
Lee, in just his 10th season as a head coach, notched his 400th victory Saturday as his fifth-ranked Clemson Tigers defeated Austin Peay, 10-1, at Doug Kingsmore Stadium in Clemson.
