LOUISVILLE, Ky. – Clemson had plenty to be excited about on Friday after it secured a birth in its first ACC Softball Championship Game.
The top-seeded Tigers bested No. 4 seed Virginia Tech 2-0 behind a shutdown performance by Valerie Cagle in the circle.
Most of this young Clemson team has never experienced postseason softball until this week and now they are set to play for the ACC Tournament Championship after winning the ACC regular season title last weekend.
Head coach John Rittman had never coached in a conference tournament before this season despite an illustrious career at Stanford, due to fact the Pac-12 did not have a tournament during his time out west.
