Tigers find shooting stroke at half to dominate Deacs in ACC opener

CLEMSON - The Clemson men's basketball team is off to a 1-0 start in ACC action for the first time in the last five seasons.

Brad Brownell's Tigers rallied from down seven at the half to Wake Forest on the strength of hot shooting and lockdown defense in the second session. All-ACC big man PJ Hall anchored the attack with 21 points, while the Tigers offense hit nine 3-pointers -- eight in the second half -- and sunk all but one free throw to take the lead and pull away to a 77-57 win.
