Monte Lee wanted to get his message out there as fast as he could.
Sunday night’s loss to Vanderbilt in the Clemson Regional Finals was not indicative of the kind of season Clemson had.
There was not no doubt he and his ballplayers were embarrassed about their performance in a 19-6 loss at Doug Kingsmore Stadium, but he wanted to make sure this one game is not what people remember when they think back to the 2018 baseball season.
Lee also does not want people to hold this team responsible for the program’s lack of success in NCAA Regionals, the third consecutive year under Lee—all at home—it failed to advance to a super regional and the eighth straight overall.
