CLEMSON – Bring on High Point.
Clemson was selected to the NCAA Tournament as the No. 6 national seed and No. 1 seed in the Clemson (SC) Regional at Doug Kingsmore Stadium. The Tigers (41-14) face No. 4 seed High Point (34-25) in their opening game on Friday (7 p.m./ACCN), while No. 2 seed Vanderbilt (38-21) and No. 3 seed Coastal Carolina (34-23) round out the regional field (noon matchup on Friday/ESPN2).
It marks Clemson’s 46th NCAA Tournament appearance, fifth most in the nation.
Vanderbilt is the big-name opponent – Clemson head coach Erik Bakich worked with Vanderbilt head coach Tim Corbin at both Clemson and Vanderbilt, and the Tigers hosted Vanderbilt twice recently in 2017 and 2018, where the Commodores advanced to the Super Regionals each time.
