Clemson coach Amanda Butler said throughout the 2018-19 season that she would love for her players to have the opportunity to experience the NCAA Tournament after going through so many difficult times earlier in their careers.
Butler’s wish is coming true as Clemson has officially earned a spot in the Big Dance.
The Tigers are a No. 9 seed in the NCAA Tournament and will face No. 8 seed South Dakota in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, it was announced Monday evening. The game will be played Friday night at 7 p.m. in Starkville, Mississippi.
