Clemson softball announced as NCAA Regional host, field set


by -

The Clemson softball team will host its first-ever NCAA Regional next weekend.

No. 10 national seed Clemson (39-15) is set to welcome regional 2-seed Auburn (39-15), 3-seed Louisiana (44-11) and 4-seed UNC-Wilmington (32-13). The Tigers will open with UNC-Wilmington on Friday in a noon start.

Clemson reached the ACC Softball Championship final this weekend and finished with wins in six of the final seven games, earning a top-10 RPI (8).

John Rittman’s Tigers went 22-5 at McWhorter Stadium this season and won 17-of-19 at home since an early-season sweep at the hands of a highly-ranked Virginia Tech team.

Clemson softball made its first NCAA Tournament last year in its first full season as a program, going to No. 3 overall seed Alabama and falling in the regional finals.
